Which radars cover Mount Juliet?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KOHX (Nashville, TN), about 4 miles 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 Mount Juliet | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KOHX Nashville, TN | 4 mi northwest | 200 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KHPX Fort Campbell, KY | 57 mi northwest | 4,200 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KHTX Huntsville, AL | 91 mi south-southeast | 8,300 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.
