To use the enhanced display, you may find the videos on their FAQ page here to be helpful, especially the "Full tour" here. The display can be a bit confusing to use. In addition to Next Generation Weather Radar (NEXRAD Wikipedia article) data, you can also view imagery from Terminal Doppler Weather Radar (TDWR Wikipedia article) sites. This new display is much more complex to use than their previous display, though it does contain a significant amount of additional products, including more imagery types. In December 2020, they updated their radar display to version 2, which was designed to be mobile friendly.
