NWS radar station catalog

Return the catalog of NWS radar stations (approximately 208 sites). The US operates a WSR-88D (NEXRAD) network of around 160 S-band Doppler radars plus TDWR terminal Doppler radars at major airports. Each record carries the station ID, name, latitude, longitude, elevation, current and average operational latency. Sugra surfaces the catalog for discovery and situational-awareness; radar Level-II / Level-III volume data itself is served by separate NOAA infrastructure not integrated here.
