Which radars cover Ebro?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KEVX (Eglin AFB, FL), about 9 miles north-northwest. 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 Ebro | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KEVX Eglin AFB, FL | 9 mi north-northwest | 500 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KEOX Fort Rucker, AL | 75 mi north-northeast | 6,300 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KTLH Tallahassee, FL | 93 mi east | 8,600 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.
