Which radars cover Coalville?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KMTX (Salt Lake City, UT), about 59 miles west-northwest. 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 Coalville | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KMTX Salt Lake City, UT | 59 mi west-northwest | 4,400 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
