Which radars cover Remington?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KLOT (Chicago, IL), about 76 miles northwest. 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 Remington | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KLOT Chicago, IL | 76 mi northwest | 6,400 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |

| KIND Indianapolis, IN | 86 mi south-southeast | 7,700 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
