SVR is best determined by specific ground truth, not just Radar.

understood... but if there is no one there (like Tom mentioned) then they use radar. I was just curious as to why it wasn't issued in this specific instance. Apparently, it wasn't severe. Just sparking some conversation. Sorry.

No prob...valid comment
Just meant Base Reflectivity doesn't always in and of itself render SVR. It's true, NWS will sometimes go with a SVR based on Radar returns.

I've always heard radar data prompting Severe Thunderstorm and Torando Warnings (even [Flash] Flood Warnings are issued when looking at radar data).
In other words, our local National Weather Service office(s) [I have two NWS coverage areas, literally minutes from me in two direction, as some of you know] don't solely indicate severe weather information in the Warning Statements from the public and not the radar.

This brings up an interesting point then... how much credibility should be put into the radar vs. actual ground reports?
