Which radars cover Berrydale?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KEVX (Eglin AFB, FL), about 70 miles east-southeast. 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 Berrydale | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KEVX Eglin AFB, FL | 70 mi east-southeast | 5,700 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KMOB Mobile, AL | 73 mi west-southwest | 6,000 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KEOX Fort Rucker, AL | 101 mi east-northeast | 9,700 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
Beam height is the center of the 0.5° scan above the radar, with standard refraction. Mountains near a radar can block it further.
