Which radars cover Lobelville?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KHPX (Fort Campbell, KY), about 74 miles north-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 Lobelville | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KHPX Fort Campbell, KY | 74 mi north-northeast | 6,100 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KOHX Nashville, TN | 77 mi east-northeast | 6,500 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KPAH Paducah, KY | 106 mi north-northwest | 10,500 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.
