Which radars cover Callery?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KPBZ (Pittsburgh, PA), about 17 miles south-southwest. 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 Callery | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KPBZ Pittsburgh, PA | 17 mi south-southwest | 900 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KCLE Cleveland, OH | 106 mi west-northwest | 10,500 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KCCX State College, PA | 107 mi east | 10,700 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.
