Which radars cover Stewartsville?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KVWX (Evansville, IN), about 8 miles 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 Stewartsville | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KVWX Evansville, IN | 8 mi northeast | 400 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KPAH Paducah, KY | 92 mi southwest | 8,500 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KLVX Louisville, KY | 104 mi east | 10,200 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.
