Which radars cover Cloverdale?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KHDC (Hammond, LA), about 90 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 Cloverdale | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KHDC Hammond, LA | 90 mi southeast | 8,200 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KPOE Fort Polk, LA | 95 mi west-southwest | 8,900 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KDGX Jackson, MS | 100 mi east-northeast | 9,600 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
Beam height is the center of the 0.5° scan above the radar, with standard refraction. Mountains near a radar can block it further.
