Which radars cover Mill Village?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KPBZ (Pittsburgh, PA), about 94 miles south. 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 Mill Village | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KPBZ Pittsburgh, PA | 94 mi south | 8,700 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KBUF Buffalo, NY | 97 mi northeast | 9,200 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KCLE Cleveland, OH | 103 mi west-southwest | 10,000 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.
