Which radars cover Warren?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KLZK (Little Rock, AR), about 85 miles north. 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 Warren | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KLZK Little Rock, AR | 85 mi north | 7,600 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KSHV Shreveport, LA | 130 mi southwest | 14,500 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KDGX Jackson, MS | 152 mi southeast | 18,500 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.
