Abstract
Abstract
Rainfall amounts vary randomly over time and space. Rainfall monitoring and forecasting is a difficult task, especially for a short-term period from 30 minutes to 3 hours. Recently Doppler weather radars have been used as one of the new solutions in the short-term forecasting of extreme rain or storm. This research presents some results of forecasting the wind direction, velocity, and rainfall of a typical rainy day, 14 September 2010, based on CAPPI images of a DWSR-2500C radar in the Nha Be district, Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC). The results showed that the Doppler radar, in a scanning radius of 30 km, is very effective in forecasting extreme rainfall for each region and district when reflected radar signals from clouds moving towards the city are detected. This research provides useful information in the forecast of extreme rainfall for flood prevention works in the HCM City.
