The CBS13 Mobile Weather Lab
What's the weather like near you, or where you're headed? CBS13 has the perfect vehicle to keep you up-to-date on current conditions: it's the Mobile Weather Lab.
The CBS13 Mobile Weather Lab is a state-of-the-art, specially equipped news truck that takes CBS13's Weather Team to places like Tahoe, Yosemite, the Delta and beyond in Northern California to give viewers the clearest weather update.
Since the vehicle's launch over a year ago, the Mobile Weather Lab has also taken the CBS13 Weather team to schools and special events throughout the region to provide an in-depth view on weather and educate viewers on the science behind the forecasts with state-of-the-art mobile technology.
The CBS13 Mobile Weather Lab has:
- A mobile weather radar display to track weather systems as they move across the region.
- Real-time weather information on an LED message board
- A digital weather system providing live current conditions from the exact location of the vehicle
- The technical ability to be 'live' when and where weather happens with HD cameras
- Connectivity and interactivity
And the collected data allows the CBS13 Weather Team to accurately determine current and recent conditions at any location.
