Which radars cover Camilla?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KTLH (Tallahassee, FL), about 58 miles south. 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 Camilla | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KTLH Tallahassee, FL | 58 mi south | 4,400 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
