Which radars cover Holland?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KVWX (Evansville, IN), about 37 miles west. 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 Holland | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KVWX Evansville, IN | 37 mi west | 2,400 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KLVX Louisville, KY | 62 mi east-southeast | 4,800 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KHPX Fort Campbell, KY | 105 mi south | 10,400 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.
