The Miami WSR-88D Doppler Radar (KAMX) will be out of service the
week of December 4th, 2016 for a Signal Processor Upgrade. This
upgrade is part of the Service Life Extension Program for WSR-88D
Doppler Radars being completed across the nation.

While KAMX is down for this upgrade, neighboring radars including
the Key West WSR-88D (KBYX), Tampa Bay WSR-88D (KTBW), and Melbourne
WSR-88D (KMLB) will be available to cover southern Florida.
Metropolitan South Florida will also be afforded additional coverage
from FAA Terminal Doppler Radars located at Miami (TMIA), Fort
Lauderdale (TFLL), and West Palm Beach (TPBI).
