Which radars cover Verdunville?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KRLX (Charleston, WV), about 36 miles north-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 Verdunville | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KRLX Charleston, WV | 36 mi north-northeast | 2,300 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KJKL Jackson, KY | 71 mi west-southwest | 5,800 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KFCX Blacksburg, VA | 114 mi east-southeast | 11,700 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.
