Which radars cover Flemington?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KDIX (Philadelphia, NJ), about 45 miles south-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 Flemington | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KDIX Philadelphia, NJ | 45 mi south-southeast | 3,100 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KOKX Upton, NY | 107 mi east-northeast | 10,700 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KDOX Dover AFB, DE | 120 mi south-southwest | 12,800 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
