Which radars cover Gnadenhutten?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KPBZ (Pittsburgh, PA), about 65 miles east. 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 Gnadenhutten | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KPBZ Pittsburgh, PA | 65 mi east | 5,100 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KCLE Cleveland, OH | 76 mi north-northwest | 6,400 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KRLX Charleston, WV | 142 mi south | 16,700 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.
