Which radars cover Iberia?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KSGF (Springfield, MO), about 84 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 Iberia | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KSGF Springfield, MO | 84 mi southwest | 7,500 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KLSX St. Louis, MO | 97 mi east-northeast | 9,200 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KEAX Kansas City, MO | 118 mi west-northwest | 12,300 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.
