Which radars cover Theresa?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KMKX (Milwaukee/Sullivan, WI), about 38 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 Theresa | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KMKX Milwaukee/Sullivan, WI | 38 mi south | 2,500 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KGRB Green Bay, WI | 70 mi north-northeast | 5,700 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KLOT Chicago, IL | 134 mi south | 15,100 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.
