Which radars cover Shreve?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KCLE (Cleveland, OH), about 51 miles north. 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 Shreve | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KCLE Cleveland, OH | 51 mi north | 3,700 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KPBZ Pittsburgh, PA | 95 mi east | 8,900 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KILN Wilmington, OH | 129 mi southwest | 14,300 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.
