Which radars cover Roseto?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KDIX (Philadelphia, NJ), about 77 miles 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 Roseto | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KDIX Philadelphia, NJ | 77 mi southeast | 6,500 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KBGM Binghamton, NY | 100 mi north-northwest | 9,500 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KOKX Upton, NY | 123 mi east | 13,300 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.
