Comparing PHS Reflectivity with the HRRR and MRMS Reflectivity

 

In this animation we track the progression of MRMS composite reflectivity (right) hourly over the previous three hours compared to the PHS (left) and HRRR (center) reflectivity. This morning convection allowing models were slow to initiate convection compared to reality and it seems that trend is continuing this afternoon with the southeastern progression of ongoing convection. The PHS has been slowest today with the southeastern movement, while the HRRR is a bit closer to reality but still behind (especially in the in the northeastern portion of the CWA.
