Which radars cover Huguley?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KMXX (Maxwell AFB, AL), about 38 miles west-southwest. Radar beams climb as they travel, so the height of the lowest scan over town decides how low in a storm the radar can see.
| Radar | Distance | Lowest beam over Huguley | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KMXX Maxwell AFB, AL | 38 mi west-southwest | 2,500 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |

| KBMX Birmingham, AL | 92 mi west-northwest | 8,400 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
