Which radars cover Deweyville?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KLCH (Lake Charles, LA), about 35 miles east-southeast. 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 Deweyville | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KLCH Lake Charles, LA | 35 mi east-southeast | 2,300 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KPOE Fort Polk, LA | 76 mi northeast | 6,400 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KHGX Houston, TX | 97 mi southwest | 9,200 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.
