Many Different Technologies to detect and help forecast weather Weather Satellites Radar (Doppler, NEXRAD) Balloons Computer Programs Weather Agencies (Environment Canada, The Weather Network)

Satellite Imagery Mostly detects and tracks cloud cover Detects light/heat/infrared radiation

Radar Imagery Mostly detects and measures precipitation/storms Detects by using microwaves

(animation)

Weather Balloons Carry various instruments to measure weather factors

Weather Stations Often at airports Instruments to collect temperature, precipitation, wind speed, humidity,etc.
