The National Weather Service is proposing to lower the elevation scan of the WSR-88D Doppler Radar in Grand Junction, CO. This will allow for better scanning of the atmosphere from a radar that is located over 10,000 feet in elevation. These improvements will provide better radar coverage for much of eastern Utah and western Colorado. A Draft Environmental Assessment (EA) for lowering the minimum scan angle of the Weather Surveillance Radar-Model 1988 Doppler (WSR-88D) serving the Grand Junction, CO, area is now available for public comment. The Draft EA document can be obtained at: DRAFT Environmental Assessment
