On your radar

Saw something I didn't know existed yesterday when I did Spy Stone cache near Chilbolton. According to the cache description, the huge radar seen across the field is the world's largest fully steerable meteorological radar. Known as the Observatory, it studies rain, cloud and ice and helps with research for improved weather forecasting for the effects on communication systems and understanding climate change.

Would have been cool to go have a closer look...
