Which radars cover Trivoli?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KILX (Lincoln, IL), about 48 miles 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 Trivoli | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KILX Lincoln, IL | 48 mi southeast | 3,300 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KDVN Quad Cities, IA | 73 mi north-northwest | 6,000 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KLOT Chicago, IL | 113 mi northeast | 11,600 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.
