Which radars cover Park Falls?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KDLH (Duluth, MN), about 105 miles northwest. 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 Park Falls	View
KDLH Duluth, MN	105 mi northwest	10,300 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KMQT Marquette, MI	144 mi east-northeast	17,100 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KARX La Crosse, WI	151 mi south-southwest	18,300 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.
