Which radars cover Lemoyne?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KLNX (North Platte, NE), about 79 miles 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 Lemoyne | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KLNX North Platte, NE | 79 mi northeast | 6,800 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KGLD Goodland, KS | 132 mi south | 14,800 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KCYS Cheyenne, WY | 156 mi west | 19,300 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.
