Which radars cover Webb?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KNQA (Memphis, TN), about 100 miles north-northeast. 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 Webb | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KNQA Memphis, TN | 100 mi north-northeast | 9,600 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KGWX Columbus AFB, MS | 116 mi east | 12,000 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KDGX Jackson, MS | 117 mi south | 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.
