Which radars cover Twodot?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KBLX (Billings, MT), about 80 miles east-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 Twodot | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KBLX Billings, MT | 80 mi east-southeast | 6,900 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KTFX Great Falls, MT | 95 mi northwest | 8,900 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KMSX Missoula, MT | 190 mi west-northwest | 26,900 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.
