Which radars cover Eagle Mountain?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KMTX (Salt Lake City, UT), about 69 miles north-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 Eagle Mountain | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KMTX Salt Lake City, UT | 69 mi north-northwest | 5,600 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KICX Cedar City, UT | 194 mi south-southwest | 27,700 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KSFX Pocatello, ID | 196 mi north | 28,200 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.
