Which radars cover Leming?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KEWX (San Antonio, TX), about 51 miles north-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 Leming | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KEWX San Antonio, TX | 51 mi north-northeast | 3,700 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KCRP Corpus Christi, TX | 106 mi south-southeast | 10,500 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KDFX Laughlin AFB, TX | 110 mi west | 11,100 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.
