Which radars cover Cuero?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KEWX (San Antonio, TX), about 61 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 Cuero | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KEWX San Antonio, TX | 61 mi northwest | 4,700 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KCRP Corpus Christi, TX | 92 mi south | 8,500 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KGRK Central Texas, TX | 112 mi north | 11,400 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.
