Which radars cover Reedsville?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KGRB (Green Bay, WI), about 25 miles north-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 Reedsville | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KGRB Green Bay, WI | 25 mi north-northwest | 1,500 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KMKX Milwaukee/Sullivan, WI | 87 mi south-southwest | 7,800 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KGRR Grand Rapids, MI | 149 mi southeast | 17,900 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.
