WINK News, serving Ft. Myers and Southwest Florida, has launched a new dual-polarization radar system.

Dubbed WINK Doppler 3X, the radar is the billed as the most powerful in the region with one million watts of power – transmitting and receiving pulses in both a horizontal and vertical orientation.

WINK notes less powerful doppler radars have difficulties seeing the bottom half of storms, beneath the pulse of beams emitted from the radar.

Matt Devitt, WINK chief meteorologist, notes this is especially important for catching tornadoes and other formations at the base of a cloud.
