New weather radar gives a better view of storms in North Mississippi

CLARKSDALE, Miss — A new weather radar in North Mississippi will give government agencies better views of severe weather in the area, helping forecasters keep you safe when storms strike. The radar was recently installed on a water tower in Clarksdale by Kentucky-based weather tech company Climavision. They plan to install 30 radars across the country by the end of this year, and hope to add more next year.
