Canadian radar shows the intensity of precipitation for Canada. Unlike NOWRad,
Canadian radar does not show the precipitation type.
Tracking storms
You can use the STORM TRACK function to monitor significant storms in your area.
These include tropical disturbances, depressions, storms and cyclones, hurricanes,
typhoons and super typhoons.
The system displays the track the storm has taken, its current and forecasted position,
the wind radii (current position only), direction and speed of travel.
