 That's not what the NWS web page says, and it's not what I was told by the 
 local NWS folks. The whole discussion at the NATCA "Communicating for 
 Safety" conference had to do with the delays between real-time and WARP 
 experienced by Center controllers. One point made was that Radar and Weather 
 Processing involves (duh) processing, and six seconds was never mentioned. 
 
 Something is missing here, and I'm not sure where to look. But I have a ZSE 
 controller I can check with. 
 
That's the center.  Their display is a mosaic of many radar sites.  Ask 
your center buddy how often center weather radar gets updated.  However 
when you are talking to an approach or tower controller with radar, that 
updates every six seconds.  There's no processing.  What I see is what's 
there.
