Which radars cover Allport?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KLZK (Little Rock, AR), about 34 miles northwest. 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 Allport | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KLZK Little Rock, AR | 34 mi northwest | 2,100 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KNQA Memphis, TN | 122 mi east-northeast | 13,000 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
