Which radars cover Tildenville?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KMLB (Melbourne, FL), about 65 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 Tildenville	View
KMLB Melbourne, FL	65 mi east-southeast	5,100 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KTBW Tampa, FL	75 mi southwest	6,300 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation
KJAX Jacksonville, FL	134 mi north	15,200 ft	Limited — 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.
