Which radars cover Fox Park?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KCYS (Cheyenne, WY), about 70 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 Fox Park | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KCYS Cheyenne, WY | 70 mi east | 5,700 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KFTG Denver/Boulder, CO | 123 mi southeast | 13,200 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KGJX Grand Junction, CO | 177 mi southwest | 23,800 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.
