Which radars cover North Woodstock?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KGYX (Portland, ME), about 72 miles east. 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 North Woodstock | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KGYX Portland, ME | 72 mi east | 5,900 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KCXX Burlington, VT | 80 mi west-northwest | 6,900 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KBOX Boston, MA | 147 mi south-southeast | 17,500 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.
