Which radars cover Camargo?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KVNX (Vance AFB, OK), about 82 miles 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 Camargo | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KVNX Vance AFB, OK | 82 mi northeast | 7,100 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KFDR Frederick, OK | 116 mi south | 12,000 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KTLX Oklahoma City, OK | 122 mi east-southeast | 13,100 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.
