Which radars cover Patton Village?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KHGX (Houston, TX), about 50 miles south. 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 Patton Village | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KHGX Houston, TX | 50 mi south | 3,600 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KLCH Lake Charles, LA | 117 mi east | 12,200 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KGRK Central Texas, TX | 137 mi west-northwest | 15,700 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
