Which radars cover Teton?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KSFX (Pocatello, ID), about 74 miles 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 Teton | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KSFX Pocatello, ID | 74 mi southwest | 6,200 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KRIW Riverton, WY | 170 mi east-southeast | 22,300 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KMTX Salt Lake City, UT | 186 mi south-southwest | 25,800 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.
