Which radars cover Milburn?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KTLX (Oklahoma City, OK), about 86 miles north-northwest. 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 Milburn | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KTLX Oklahoma City, OK | 86 mi north-northwest | 7,700 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KFWS Dallas/Fort Worth, TX | 123 mi south-southwest | 13,200 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KFDR Frederick, OK | 139 mi west | 16,000 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.
