Which radars cover Uniontown?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KSRX (Fort Smith, AR), about 21 miles south-southeast. 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 Uniontown | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KSRX Fort Smith, AR | 21 mi south-southeast | 1,200 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KINX Tulsa, OK | 75 mi west-northwest | 6,200 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KSGF Springfield, MO | 128 mi north-northeast | 14,100 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.
