Weather radar gets a major upgrade, can now distinguish rain from flying cows
We've all been there: The weather forecast calls for rain, and then it's sunny skies for the entire day. Then one day, after you completely ignore the rain advisory, in comes a freaking deluge while you're left without an umbrella. The National Weather service may not be able to help you out if you forget your umbrella, but its new radar system could mean more accurate weather forecasts.
