Which radars cover Greenbush?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KGRB (Green Bay, WI), about 50 miles north. 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 Greenbush | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KGRB Green Bay, WI | 50 mi north | 3,500 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KMKX Milwaukee/Sullivan, WI | 61 mi south-southwest | 4,600 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KGRR Grand Rapids, MI | 142 mi east-southeast | 16,600 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.
