Which radars cover Kremmling?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KFTG (Denver/Boulder, CO), about 99 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 Kremmling | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KFTG Denver/Boulder, CO | 99 mi east | 9,400 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KCYS Cheyenne, WY | 112 mi northeast | 11,400 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KGJX Grand Junction, CO | 120 mi southwest | 12,700 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.
