Which radars cover Millport?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KBGM (Binghamton, NY), about 44 miles east. 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 Millport | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KBGM Binghamton, NY | 44 mi east | 3,000 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
