Which radars cover Sequim?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KATX (Seattle/Tacoma, WA), about 29 miles east-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 Sequim | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KATX Seattle/Tacoma, WA | 29 mi east-northeast | 1,700 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KLGX Langley Hill, WA | 81 mi southwest | 7,100 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KRTX Portland, OR | 163 mi south | 20,800 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.
