Which radars cover Crawfordville?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KTLH (Tallahassee, FL), about 14 miles north. 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 Crawfordville | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KTLH Tallahassee, FL | 14 mi north | 700 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KVAX Moody AFB, GA | 94 mi east-northeast | 8,800 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KEVX Eglin AFB, FL | 96 mi west-northwest | 9,100 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.
