Which radars cover Mansfield?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KBGM (Binghamton, NY), about 62 miles east-northeast. 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 Mansfield | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KBGM Binghamton, NY | 62 mi east-northeast | 4,800 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KCCX State College, PA | 78 mi southwest | 6,600 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KBUF Buffalo, NY | 116 mi northwest | 12,000 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.
