Which radars cover Tidioute?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KCCX (State College, PA), about 89 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 Tidioute | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KCCX State College, PA | 89 mi southeast | 8,100 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
