Which radars cover Stockton?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KMOB (Mobile, AL), about 31 miles 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 Stockton	View
KMOB Mobile, AL	31 mi southwest	1,900 ft	Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground
KEVX Eglin AFB, FL	120 mi east-southeast	12,700 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KLIX New Orleans, LA	125 mi west-southwest	13,500 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms

Beam height is the center of the 0.5° scan above the radar, with standard refraction. Mountains near a radar can block it further.
