President Joe Biden is staying mum about student protests and police crackdowns as Republicans try to turn campus unrest over the war in Gaza into a campaign cudgel against Democrats. Tension at colleges and universities has been building for days as some demonstrators refuse to remove encampments and administrators turn to law enforcement to clear them by force, leading to clashes that have seized attention from politicians and the media. Four other officers were wounded in the shootout, and an AR-15 semi-automatic rifle, a 40-caliber handgun and ammunition were found at the scene. Those killed were identified as Sam Poloche and William Elliott of the North Carolina Department of Adult Corrections; Charlotte-Mecklenburg Officer Joshua Eyer; and Deputy U.S. Marshal Thomas Weeks. The task force was fired on by the wanted suspect as they approached the house and the man was killed in the front yard, Jennings said. Police identified the suspect as 39-year-old Terry Clark Hughes, who was wanted for possession of a firearm by a felon and two counts of felony to elude out of Lincoln County.

That same year is also famous for being one of the most active and strongest hurricane seasons on record. Most of the tornadoes that season were from the remnants of tropical systems, including Bonnie, Charley, Gaston, Frances, Ivan and Jeanne. The top four widest tornadoes in North Carolina history occurred during the March 1984 outbreak. On that day, 14 tornadoes were confirmed with two tornadoes being over a mile wide. Nov. 23, 1992, was the third day of a historic multi-state tornado outbreak.

They can also reflect energy back to the radar and appear as clutter (AP) on the radar image and contaminate the base reflectivity data. The reflectivity data is used by radar algorithms to estimate rainfall and to detect certain storm characteristics. Finally, they can impact the velocity data, which are also used by radar operators and by a variety of algorithms in the radar’s data processors to detect certain storm characteristics, such as mesocyclones, relative storm motion, turbulence, etc.  Learn more here.

One of the most famous days in North Carolina weather history was March 28, 1984. — North Carolina has had nearly 1,500 reported tornadoes since 1950, and around one-third of those happen in April and May. The installation of a new signal processor for was completed on September, 13th, 2013.

Since the beam is nearly blocked by the mountains, the returns are usually assigned a high dBz, see Figure 2 below. The range resolution of the TDWR is finer than what is available in the Weather Surveillance Radar, 1988 Doppler (WSR-88D) or any other FAA radar that has weather channel capability. The TDWR utilizes a range gate resolution of 150 meters (m) for Doppler data. It has a resolution of 150 m for reflectivity data within 135 kilometers (km) and 300 m from beyond 135 km to 460 km. By contrast, the WSR-88D employed by the National Weather Service (NWS), Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and Department of Defense (DoD) has a maximum range gate resolution of 250 m for Doppler and 1 km for surveillance data.

Protesters described chaos as police descended on the campus, where more than a dozen pro-Palestinian demonstrators were taken away in zip-tie handcuffs as supporters screamed in outrage.

As gunfire blasted through the yard of the two-story home next door, Chhoeun, 54, began livestreaming to Facebook from his iPhone. The incident left four officers dead and another four injured. The suspected shooter, 39-year-old Terry Clark Hughes Jr., was fatally shot by police. Chhoeun watched as one officer was hit after another just nearby. “We are deeply saddened by the tragic incident that occurred today involving multiple law enforcement officers.

Like the previous time period, this smaller sample size saw about 84% of all tornadoes were either EF0 or EF1. The second most active season came in the spring of 1998, according to Davis. Many of those tornadoes were in the western Piedmont of North Carolina. That day saw the state's final, and most recent, F4 tornado, which occurred in Caldwell County.

"This is a common question about many long-lived historical tornadoes, including the apparent US record 'Tri-State tornado' in March 1925, which was said to have a continuous path length of 219 miles." Once again, Biden will seek to be an empathetic leader for a community reeling from gun violence, while also calling for stricter rules around firearms and better funding for law enforcement on the front lines. These are most common in the fall around bodies of water that typically have temperatures warmer than the surrounding land at night. It is also the time birds are gathering for the seasonal migration. Just before sunrise, there is often a coordinated lift off and dispersion of the birds out into the surrounding fields for feeding during the day.
