Which radars cover Limestone?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KINX (Tulsa, OK), about 14 miles 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 Limestone | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KINX Tulsa, OK | 14 mi southeast | 700 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KSRX Fort Smith, AR | 105 mi southeast | 10,400 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KTLX Oklahoma City, OK | 109 mi southwest | 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.
