Which radars cover Bay Village?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KCLE (Cleveland, OH), about 6 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 Bay Village | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KCLE Cleveland, OH | 6 mi southeast | 300 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KPBZ Pittsburgh, PA | 111 mi southeast | 11,300 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KDTX Detroit, MI | 115 mi northwest | 11,900 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.
