Which radars cover Hyde Park?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KABX (Albuquerque, NM), about 66 miles southwest. 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 Hyde Park | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KABX Albuquerque, NM | 66 mi southwest | 5,200 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KFDX Cannon AFB, NM | 148 mi east-southeast | 17,800 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KHDX Holloman AFB, NM | 183 mi south | 25,100 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.
