Which radars cover Timbercreek Canyon?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KAMA (Amarillo, TX), about 14 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 Timbercreek Canyon | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KAMA Amarillo, TX | 14 mi north-northeast | 700 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KLBB Lubbock, TX | 97 mi south | 9,100 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KFDX Cannon AFB, NM | 106 mi west-southwest | 10,500 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.
