Which radars cover Eastpoint?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KTLH (Tallahassee, FL), about 55 miles northeast. 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.

KTLH
Tallahassee, FL		55 mi northeast4,000 ftGood — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KEVX

KEOX
Fort Rucker, AL		123 mi north-northwest13,200 ftLimited — 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.
