Which radars cover Nashville?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KVAX (Moody AFB, GA), 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 Nashville	View
KVAX Moody AFB, GA	26 mi south-southeast	1,500 ft	Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground
KTLH Tallahassee, FL	85 mi southwest	7,500 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation
KJGX Robins AFB, GA	102 mi north	9,900 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation

Beam height is the center of the 0.5° scan above the radar, with standard refraction. Mountains near a radar can block it further.
