Which radars cover Peck?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KDTX (Detroit, MI), about 51 miles southwest. 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 Peck | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KDTX Detroit, MI | 51 mi southwest | 3,600 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KCLE Cleveland, OH | 137 mi south-southeast | 15,600 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KGRR Grand Rapids, MI | 140 mi west | 16,300 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.
