Which radars cover Lemoyne?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KCCX (State College, PA), about 75 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 Lemoyne | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KCCX State College, PA | 75 mi northwest | 6,200 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KLWX Sterling, MD | 93 mi south-southwest | 8,600 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KDOX Dover AFB, DE | 125 mi southeast | 13,600 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.
