Which radars cover Nevada?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KCLE (Cleveland, OH), about 78 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 Nevada | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KCLE Cleveland, OH | 78 mi east-northeast | 6,600 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KILN Wilmington, OH | 103 mi south-southwest | 10,100 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KDTX Detroit, MI | 131 mi north | 14,600 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.

KCLE (Cleveland, OH), about 78 miles east-northeast. KILN (Wilmington, OH) is 103 miles away and also covers the area.
Does radar show snow in Nevada?
Yes. TALON colors snow blue, a rain–snow mix pink and freezing rain purple using NOAA's precipitation-type analysis. Over Nevada the lowest scan from KCLE is about 6,600 ft up, so light snow from shallow clouds can be under-shown — check NWS winter alerts too.
