Which radars cover Wellsville?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KMTX (Salt Lake City, UT), about 36 miles southwest. 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 Wellsville | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KMTX Salt Lake City, UT | 36 mi southwest | 2,300 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KSFX Pocatello, ID | 109 mi north-northwest | 11,000 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KRIW Riverton, WY | 203 mi east-northeast | 30,000 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
