Which radars cover Cordaville?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KBOX (Boston, MA), about 29 miles 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 Cordaville | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KBOX Boston, MA | 29 mi southeast | 1,800 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
