Which radars cover Parc?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KCXX (Burlington, VT), about 18 miles 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 Parc | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KCXX Burlington, VT | 18 mi southeast | 1,000 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KTYX Montague, NY | 127 mi west-southwest | 13,900 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KENX Albany, NY | 147 mi south-southwest | 17,500 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.
