Which radars cover Little York?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KLVX (Louisville, KY), about 50 miles south. 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 Little York | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KLVX Louisville, KY | 50 mi south | 3,600 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KIND Indianapolis, IN | 73 mi north-northwest | 6,000 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KVWX Evansville, IN | 103 mi west-southwest | 10,000 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.
