Which radars cover Seven Springs?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KPBZ (Pittsburgh, PA), about 60 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 Seven Springs | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KPBZ Pittsburgh, PA | 60 mi northwest | 4,600 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KCCX State College, PA | 92 mi northeast | 8,400 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KLWX Sterling, MD | 121 mi southeast | 12,800 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.
