Which radars cover Holloway?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KPBZ (Pittsburgh, PA), about 54 miles east-northeast. 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 Holloway | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KPBZ Pittsburgh, PA | 54 mi east-northeast | 4,000 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KCLE Cleveland, OH | 95 mi north-northwest | 8,800 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KRLX Charleston, WV | 132 mi south-southwest | 14,800 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.
