Which radars cover Taloga?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KVNX (Vance AFB, OK), about 67 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 Taloga | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KVNX Vance AFB, OK | 67 mi northeast | 5,300 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KTLX Oklahoma City, OK | 107 mi east-southeast | 10,600 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KFDR Frederick, OK | 116 mi south | 12,100 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.
