Which radars cover Neenah?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KGRB (Green Bay, WI), about 29 miles 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 Neenah | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KGRB Green Bay, WI | 29 mi northeast | 1,800 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KMKX Milwaukee/Sullivan, WI | 83 mi south | 7,200 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KARX La Crosse, WI | 137 mi west | 15,700 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.
