Which radars cover Marienville?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KCCX (State College, PA), about 69 miles east-southeast. 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 Marienville	View
KCCX State College, PA	69 mi east-southeast	5,600 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KPBZ Pittsburgh, PA	87 mi southwest	7,700 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation
KBUF Buffalo, NY	104 mi north	10,200 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.
