Which radars cover Neosho Falls?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KTWX (Topeka, KS), about 78 miles north-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 Neosho Falls | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KTWX Topeka, KS | 78 mi north-northwest | 6,600 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KEAX Kansas City, MO | 89 mi northeast | 8,100 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KICT Wichita, KS | 106 mi west-southwest | 10,500 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.
