Which radars cover Devine?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KEWX (San Antonio, TX), about 65 miles 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 Devine | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KEWX San Antonio, TX | 65 mi northeast | 5,100 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KDFX Laughlin AFB, TX | 83 mi west | 7,300 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KCRP Corpus Christi, TX | 127 mi southeast | 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.
