Which radars cover Fowlerville?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KDTX (Detroit, MI), about 31 miles east. 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 Fowlerville | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KDTX Detroit, MI | 31 mi east | 1,900 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KGRR Grand Rapids, MI | 76 mi west-northwest | 6,400 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KIWX Fort Wayne, IN | 123 mi southwest | 13,200 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.
