February 2, 1998 Doppler Radar Images

Doppler radar of Grassy Key

This radar image was taken from the Key West (KBYX) Doppler radar at 6:57 pm February 2, 1998. This was about 5 minutes after the F1 tornado had passed through Grassy Key causing moderate damage. The image is a Storm Relative Velocity Map with two very strong signatures noted... one over Grassy Key and another still over the Florida Straits south of Duck Key. These and subsequent strong thunderstorms not only damaged structures but uprooted trees and knocked down power lines. Most of the lower and middle Keys were without power from that evening until late the following day.
