Which radars cover Douglassville?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KSHV (Shreveport, LA), about 59 miles south-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 Douglassville | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KSHV Shreveport, LA | 59 mi south-southeast | 4,500 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
