Which radars cover Wyoming?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KGRR (Grand Rapids, MI), about 8 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 Wyoming | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KGRR Grand Rapids, MI | 8 mi east | 400 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KIWX Fort Wayne, IN | 106 mi south | 10,500 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KDTX Detroit, MI | 114 mi east | 11,800 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.
