Which radars cover Liverpool?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KCCX (State College, PA), about 58 miles west-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 Liverpool | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KCCX State College, PA | 58 mi west-northwest | 4,400 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KLWX Sterling, MD | 113 mi south-southwest | 11,700 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KBGM Binghamton, NY | 124 mi north-northeast | 13,400 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.
