Multi-Radar Multi-Sensor (MRMS) is a fairly new technology when considering how long storm systems have been analyzed by using radio detection and ranging (radar) processes. Unlike what most meteorologists use today, a MRMS system uses data from many surrounding radars along with information from sources such as rain gauges, surface observations, upper level observations, and more. This new system provides many new products for meteorologists to utilize when analyzing severe weather events, for example, tornadic storm cells. Often times when new technology like MRMS is presented, it provides many products not available on any other system; but exactly how useful are these new products when it comes to providing an actual advantage in real time severe weather analysis? This study was created to test the hypothesis that MRMS observations will provide a time advantage for issuing a tornado warning for a storm when comparing it to a single radar observation system. The two main products from each system up for comparison and analysis are the 0-2 kilometer above ground level(AGL) azimuth shear product from the MRMS system, and the storm relative velocity product from level II radar data. The study analyzes eight cases of tornado warned storm cells stretching from Iowa, down to Louisiana from the year 2016. After analyzing data from these eight cases, it can be concluded that MRMS technology does indeed provide a time advantage for meteorologists issuing tornado warnings.
