Which radars cover North Lakeville?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KBOX (Boston, MA), about 12 miles west-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 North Lakeville | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KBOX Boston, MA | 12 mi west-northwest | 600 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KOKX Upton, NY | 121 mi southwest | 12,900 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KGYX Portland, ME | 145 mi north-northeast | 17,100 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.
