Which radars cover Pennsbury Village?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KPBZ (Pittsburgh, PA), about 9 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 Pennsbury Village | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KPBZ Pittsburgh, PA | 9 mi northwest | 500 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
