Which radars cover Westmoreland?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KTYX (Montague, NY), about 46 miles north-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 Westmoreland	View
KTYX Montague, NY	46 mi north-northwest	3,200 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KBGM Binghamton, NY	70 mi south-southwest	5,700 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KENX Albany, NY	77 mi east-southeast	6,500 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.
