Which radars cover Miller?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KRLX (Charleston, WV), about 35 miles east-southeast. 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 Miller | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KRLX Charleston, WV | 35 mi east-southeast | 2,200 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KJKL Jackson, KY | 85 mi southwest | 7,500 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KILN Wilmington, OH | 102 mi northwest | 9,900 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
Beam height is the center of the 0.5° scan above the radar, with standard refraction. Mountains near a radar can block it further.
