Which radars cover Curryville?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KLSX (St. Louis, MO), about 57 miles southeast. 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 Curryville | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KLSX St. Louis, MO | 57 mi southeast | 4,200 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KILX Lincoln, IL | 120 mi east-northeast | 12,800 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KEAX Kansas City, MO | 161 mi west-southwest | 20,400 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.
