Which radars cover Stockholm?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KMPX (Minneapolis, MN), about 68 miles west-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 Stockholm | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KMPX Minneapolis, MN | 68 mi west-northwest | 5,500 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KARX La Crosse, WI | 71 mi southeast | 5,800 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KDLH Duluth, MN | 162 mi north | 20,600 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.
