Which radars cover Belgium?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KMKX (Milwaukee/Sullivan, WI), about 51 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 Belgium | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KMKX Milwaukee/Sullivan, WI | 51 mi southwest | 3,700 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KGRB Green Bay, WI | 70 mi north | 5,700 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KGRR Grand Rapids, MI | 123 mi east-southeast | 13,300 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.
