Which radars cover Verdigris?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KINX (Tulsa, OK), about 8 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 Verdigris | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KINX Tulsa, OK | 8 mi southeast | 400 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KSRX Fort Smith, AR | 99 mi southeast | 9,400 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KTLX Oklahoma City, OK | 111 mi southwest | 11,200 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.
