Which radars cover Black Point-Green Point?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KDAX (Sacramento, CA), about 53 miles east-northeast. 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 Black Point-Green Point | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KDAX Sacramento, CA | 53 mi east-northeast | 3,800 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KMUX San Francisco, CA | 74 mi south-southeast | 6,200 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KBBX Beale AFB, CA | 107 mi north-northeast | 10,700 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.
