Which radars cover Mirando City?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KCRP (Corpus Christi, TX), about 94 miles east-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 Mirando City | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KCRP Corpus Christi, TX | 94 mi east-northeast | 8,800 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KBRO Brownsville, TX | 144 mi southeast | 16,900 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KDFX Laughlin AFB, TX | 149 mi north-northwest | 17,900 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.
