Which radars cover Latty?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KIWX (Fort Wayne, IN), about 61 miles west-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 Latty | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KIWX Fort Wayne, IN | 61 mi west-northwest | 4,700 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KILN Wilmington, OH | 122 mi south-southeast | 13,100 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KDTX Detroit, MI | 125 mi north-northeast | 13,600 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.
