Which radars cover Greenview?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KMAX (Medford, OR), about 39 miles north-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 Greenview | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KMAX Medford, OR | 39 mi north-northeast | 2,500 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KBHX Eureka, CA | 102 mi southwest | 9,800 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KBBX Beale AFB, CA | 157 mi south-southeast | 19,500 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.
