Which radars cover Terryville?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KOKX (Upton, NY), about 57 miles south. 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 Terryville | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KOKX Upton, NY | 57 mi south | 4,200 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
