The location movement and intensity of precipitation can be found by using?

Doppler radar
Doppler radar or weather radar is used to locate precipitation, forecast future intensity, calculate or detecting its motion and estimates precipitation whether it is a rain, snow, hail or storm. They are also helpful in determining the structure of storms and its potential to cause severe weather.

Moreover, if a portion of the atmosphere becomes saturated with water vapor, it will condense and precipitate allowing Doppler radar to analyze and observe precipitation.

luster is not a good characteristic to use by itself because luster is the property of minerals that indicates how much the surface of a mineral reflects light. the luster of a mineral is affected by the brilliance of the light used to observe the mineral surface.
