Which radars cover Warrington?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KMOB (Mobile, AL), about 60 miles west-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 Warrington | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KMOB Mobile, AL | 60 mi west-northwest | 4,600 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KEVX Eglin AFB, FL | 83 mi east | 7,200 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KEOX Fort Rucker, AL | 132 mi northeast | 14,700 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.
