Which radars cover Goree?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KDYX (Dyess AFB, TX), about 66 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 Goree | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KDYX Dyess AFB, TX | 66 mi south-southeast | 5,200 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |

| KLBB Lubbock, TX | 133 mi west | 14,900 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.
