Which radars cover Canal Fulton?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KCLE (Cleveland, OH), about 39 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 Canal Fulton | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KCLE Cleveland, OH | 39 mi north-northwest | 2,500 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KPBZ Pittsburgh, PA | 76 mi east-southeast | 6,400 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KILN Wilmington, OH | 156 mi southwest | 19,300 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.
