Which radars cover Poseyville?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KVWX (Evansville, IN), about 7 miles north-northeast. 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 Poseyville | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KVWX Evansville, IN | 7 mi north-northeast | 300 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KPAH Paducah, KY | 93 mi southwest | 8,700 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KLVX Louisville, KY | 101 mi east | 9,700 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.
