Which radars cover Mountain View Acres?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KEYX (Edwards AFB, CA), about 43 miles north-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 Mountain View Acres | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KEYX Edwards AFB, CA | 43 mi north-northwest | 2,900 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |

| KVTX Los Angeles, CA | 105 mi west | 10,300 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.
