Which radars cover Glens Falls North?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KENX (Albany, NY), about 55 miles south-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 Glens Falls North | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KENX Albany, NY | 55 mi south-southwest | 4,100 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KCXX Burlington, VT | 85 mi north-northeast | 7,600 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KTYX Montague, NY | 104 mi west-northwest | 10,200 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.
