Base Reflectivity images are available at several different elevation angles (tilts) of the antenna and are used to detect precipitation, evaluate storm structure, locate atmospheric boundaries and determine hail potential. "Reflectivity" is the amount of transmitted power returned to the radar receiver. The data can be analyzed to determine a storm's structure and the possibility they could become severe. A base reflectivity radar is a display of echo intensity (reflectivity) measured in dBZ (decibels of Z, where Z represents the energy reflected back to the radar). Click on the Layers menu in the bottom right of the radar to select radar options like Current Conditions, Storm Tracks.
