Which radars cover Manor?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KVAX (Moody AFB, GA), about 30 miles west-southwest. 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 Manor | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KVAX Moody AFB, GA | 30 mi west-southwest | 1,800 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KJAX Jacksonville, FL | 67 mi southeast | 5,300 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KTLH Tallahassee, FL | 115 mi west-southwest | 12,000 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.
