Which radars cover Stuckey?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KLTX (Wilmington, NC), about 65 miles east-northeast. 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 Stuckey | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KLTX Wilmington, NC | 65 mi east-northeast | 5,100 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KCAE Columbia, SC | 93 mi west | 8,700 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KCLX Charleston, SC | 116 mi southwest | 12,000 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.
