Which radars cover Henry?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KPAH (Paducah, KY), about 63 miles north-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 Henry | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KPAH Paducah, KY | 63 mi north-northwest | 4,900 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KHPX Fort Campbell, KY | 73 mi east-northeast | 6,000 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KNQA Memphis, TN | 101 mi southwest | 9,800 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
Beam height is the center of the 0.5° scan above the radar, with standard refraction. Mountains near a radar can block it further.
