Which radars cover Dundee?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KDTX (Detroit, MI), about 52 miles north. 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 Dundee | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KDTX Detroit, MI | 52 mi north | 3,700 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KCLE Cleveland, OH | 101 mi east-southeast | 9,700 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KIWX Fort Wayne, IN | 113 mi west-southwest | 11,600 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.
