Which radars cover Kingsland?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KJAX (Jacksonville, FL), about 26 miles south-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 Kingsland	View
KJAX Jacksonville, FL	26 mi south-southeast	1,500 ft	Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground
KVAX Moody AFB, GA	72 mi west	5,900 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KCLX Charleston, SC	133 mi north-northeast	14,900 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.
