Which radars cover Belleville?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KCCX (State College, PA), about 26 miles 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 Belleville | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KCCX State College, PA | 26 mi northwest | 1,600 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KLWX Sterling, MD | 113 mi south | 11,600 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KPBZ Pittsburgh, PA | 131 mi west | 14,700 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.
