Which radars cover Bondurant?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KRIW (Riverton, WY), about 98 miles east. 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 Bondurant | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KRIW Riverton, WY | 98 mi east | 9,200 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KSFX Pocatello, ID | 115 mi west | 12,000 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KMTX Salt Lake City, UT | 170 mi southwest | 22,200 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.
