Which radars cover Shiloh?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KLWX (Sterling, MD), about 78 miles south-southwest. 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 Shiloh | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KLWX Sterling, MD | 78 mi south-southwest | 6,700 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KCCX State College, PA | 91 mi northwest | 8,400 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KDOX Dover AFB, DE | 107 mi southeast | 10,700 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.
