Which radars cover Warwick?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KOKX (Upton, NY), about 82 miles east-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 Warwick	View
KOKX Upton, NY	82 mi east-southeast	7,200 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation
KDIX Philadelphia, NJ	90 mi south	8,300 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation
KENX Albany, NY	93 mi north	8,600 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation

Beam height is the center of the 0.5° scan above the radar, with standard refraction. Mountains near a radar can block it further.
