Which radars cover Edmond?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KTLX (Oklahoma City, OK), about 25 miles south-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 Edmond | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KTLX Oklahoma City, OK | 25 mi south-southeast | 1,400 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KVNX Vance AFB, OK | 84 mi north-northwest | 7,400 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KINX Tulsa, OK | 109 mi east-northeast | 11,000 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.
