Which radars cover Beersheba Springs?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KHTX (Huntsville, AL), about 43 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 Beersheba Springs | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KHTX Huntsville, AL | 43 mi south-southwest | 2,900 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KOHX Nashville, TN | 74 mi northwest | 6,100 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KHPX Fort Campbell, KY | 126 mi northwest | 13,800 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.
