Which radars cover Hagaman?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KENX (Albany, NY), about 27 miles south. 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 Hagaman | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KENX Albany, NY | 27 mi south | 1,600 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KTYX Montague, NY | 94 mi northwest | 8,700 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KBGM Binghamton, NY | 107 mi west-southwest | 10,700 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.
