Which radars cover Huttig?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KSHV (Shreveport, LA), about 105 miles west-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 Huttig | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KSHV Shreveport, LA | 105 mi west-southwest | 10,300 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |

| KDGX Jackson, MS | 138 mi east-southeast | 15,900 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
