Which radars cover Sereno del Mar?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KDAX (Sacramento, CA), about 76 miles east. 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 Sereno del Mar | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KDAX Sacramento, CA | 76 mi east | 6,400 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KMUX San Francisco, CA | 106 mi southeast | 10,600 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
