Which radars cover South Euclid?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KCLE (Cleveland, OH), about 19 miles west-southwest. 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 South Euclid | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KCLE Cleveland, OH | 19 mi west-southwest | 1,100 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KPBZ Pittsburgh, PA | 97 mi southeast | 9,100 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KDTX Detroit, MI | 129 mi northwest | 14,200 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.
