Which radars cover Port Republic?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KDIX (Philadelphia, NJ), about 29 miles north. 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 Port Republic | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KDIX Philadelphia, NJ | 29 mi north | 1,700 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KDOX Dover AFB, DE | 71 mi southwest | 5,800 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KOKX Upton, NY | 125 mi northeast | 13,600 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.
