Which radars cover Bremen?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KHPX (Fort Campbell, KY), about 43 miles south. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| KHPX Fort Campbell, KY | 43 mi south | 2,900 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KVWX Evansville, IN | 68 mi north-northwest | 5,400 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KLVX Louisville, KY | 82 mi east-northeast | 7,100 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.
