Which radars cover Hazel Green?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KDVN (Quad Cities, IA), about 64 miles south. 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 Hazel Green | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KDVN Quad Cities, IA | 64 mi south | 5,000 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KARX La Crosse, WI | 97 mi north-northwest | 9,200 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KMKX Milwaukee/Sullivan, WI | 100 mi east-northeast | 9,600 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
Beam height is the center of the 0.5° scan above the radar, with standard refraction. Mountains near a radar can block it further.
