Which radars cover Gloria Glens Park?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KCLE (Cleveland, OH), about 25 miles north. 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 Gloria Glens Park | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KCLE Cleveland, OH | 25 mi north | 1,400 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KPBZ Pittsburgh, PA | 95 mi east-southeast | 8,900 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KDTX Detroit, MI | 139 mi northwest | 16,100 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.
