Which radars cover Allardt?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KMRX (Knoxville, TN), about 84 miles east. 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 Allardt | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KMRX Knoxville, TN | 84 mi east | 7,400 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KOHX Nashville, TN | 94 mi west | 8,800 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KJKL Jackson, KY | 120 mi northeast | 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.
