Which radars cover Bremen?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KTWX (Topeka, KS), about 69 miles south-southeast. 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 Bremen | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KTWX Topeka, KS | 69 mi south-southeast | 5,600 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KUEX Hastings, NE | 92 mi west-northwest | 8,400 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KOAX Omaha, NE | 101 mi north-northeast | 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.
