Which radars cover Susquehanna Depot?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KBGM (Binghamton, NY), about 26 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 Susquehanna Depot | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KBGM Binghamton, NY | 26 mi northwest | 1,600 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KENX Albany, NY | 91 mi east-northeast | 8,300 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KTYX Montague, NY | 125 mi north | 13,700 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.
