Which radars cover Hayti?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KDIX (Philadelphia, NJ), about 76 miles east. 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 Hayti | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KDIX Philadelphia, NJ | 76 mi east | 6,400 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KDOX Dover AFB, DE | 83 mi south-southeast | 7,300 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KLWX Sterling, MD | 112 mi southwest | 11,400 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.
