Which radars cover New Baltimore?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KENX (Albany, NY), about 17 miles northwest. 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 New Baltimore | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KENX Albany, NY | 17 mi northwest | 900 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KBGM Binghamton, NY | 113 mi west | 11,600 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KOKX Upton, NY | 120 mi south-southeast | 12,700 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.
