Which radars cover Cadiz?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KIND (Indianapolis, IN), about 45 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 Cadiz | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KIND Indianapolis, IN | 45 mi west-southwest | 3,100 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KILN Wilmington, OH | 96 mi east-southeast | 9,000 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KIWX Fort Wayne, IN | 98 mi north | 9,300 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.
