KEOX WSR-88D VAD Hodograph and Wind Profile
View the latest Velocity Azimuth Display (VAD) wind profile from the KEOX WSR-88D NEXRAD weather radar near Dothan (Ft. Rucker), AL. The hodograph plots horizontal wind vectors by height above ground, with color-coded altitude layers and optional METAR surface-wind data.

QC keeps a level only where its wind speed exceeds twice its RMS fit error (the operational 2×RMS signal-to-noise test). FAIL rows are retained here for reference but excluded from QC-filtered plotting. A dash means the product reported no RMS for that level (kept, not assessable).
