Which radars cover England?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KLZK (Little Rock, AR), about 26 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 England | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KLZK Little Rock, AR | 26 mi northwest | 1,500 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KNQA Memphis, TN | 131 mi east-northeast | 14,600 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KSRX Fort Smith, AR | 145 mi west-northwest | 17,200 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.
