Which radars cover Maysville?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KEAX (Kansas City, MO), about 75 miles south. 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 Maysville | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KEAX Kansas City, MO | 75 mi south | 6,200 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KTWX Topeka, KS | 117 mi west-southwest | 12,200 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KDMX Des Moines, IA | 132 mi north-northeast | 14,800 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.
