Which radars cover Antoine?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KLZK (Little Rock, AR), about 86 miles northeast. 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 Antoine | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KLZK Little Rock, AR | 86 mi northeast | 7,700 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KSRX Fort Smith, AR | 102 mi north-northwest | 9,900 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KSHV Shreveport, LA | 112 mi south-southwest | 11,400 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.
