Which radars cover Jeisyville?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KILX (Lincoln, IL), about 40 miles north. 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 Jeisyville | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KILX Lincoln, IL | 40 mi north | 2,600 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KLSX St. Louis, MO | 91 mi southwest | 8,400 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KVWX Evansville, IN | 128 mi southeast | 14,200 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.
