Which radars cover Ursine?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KICX (Cedar City, UT), about 79 miles east-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 Ursine | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KICX Cedar City, UT | 79 mi east-southeast | 6,800 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KESX Las Vegas, NV | 162 mi south-southwest | 20,500 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KLRX Elko, NV | 235 mi northwest | 38,500 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.
