Which radars cover Stuttgart?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KLZK (Little Rock, AR), about 47 miles west-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 Stuttgart | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KLZK Little Rock, AR | 47 mi west-northwest | 3,300 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KNQA Memphis, TN | 112 mi east-northeast | 11,400 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KSRX Fort Smith, AR | 169 mi west-northwest | 22,000 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.
