Which radars cover Milano?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KGRK (Central Texas, TX), about 32 miles west. 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 Milano | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KGRK Central Texas, TX | 32 mi west | 1,900 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KEWX San Antonio, TX | 99 mi southwest | 9,400 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KFWS Dallas/Fort Worth, TX | 132 mi north-northwest | 14,800 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.
