Which radars cover Beedeville?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KNQA (Memphis, TN), about 70 miles east. 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 Beedeville | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KNQA Memphis, TN | 70 mi east | 5,700 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KLZK Little Rock, AR | 77 mi west-southwest | 6,500 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KPAH Paducah, KY | 173 mi northeast | 22,900 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.
