New Taroom Weather Radar

To advise members of a new weather radar at Taroom, Queensland

The issue

• From Friday 29 April 2022, images from the newly installed Taroom weather radar will be live on the Bureau of Meteorology's website and the BOM Weather app.
• Taroom is a dual-polarised Doppler radar - one of the best technologies for observing real-time rainfall and wind conditions across large areas.
• The new radar will provide improved coverage across the Fitzroy, Condamine and Burnett River catchments, benefiting communities as far as Woorabinda, Baralaba, Moura and Biloela to the north, Mundubbera and Gayndah to the east, Miles, Surat, Tara and Chinchilla to the south, and Injune and Roma to the west.
