Which radars cover Toad Hop?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KIND (Indianapolis, IN), about 65 miles east-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 Toad Hop | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KIND Indianapolis, IN | 65 mi east-northeast | 5,200 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KVWX Evansville, IN | 84 mi south | 7,400 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KILX Lincoln, IL | 110 mi west-northwest | 11,200 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.
