Which radars cover Eagle Point?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KMAX (Medford, OR), about 27 miles south. 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 Eagle Point | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KMAX Medford, OR | 27 mi south | 1,600 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KBHX Eureka, CA | 156 mi south-southwest | 19,400 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KBBX Beale AFB, CA | 214 mi south-southeast | 32,800 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
