Which radars cover Glendale?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KICX (Cedar City, UT), about 23 miles 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 Glendale | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KICX Cedar City, UT | 23 mi northwest | 1,300 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KESX Las Vegas, NV | 170 mi southwest | 22,300 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
