Which radars cover Eggertsville?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KBUF (Buffalo, NY), about 4 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 Eggertsville | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KBUF Buffalo, NY | 4 mi east-southeast | 200 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
