Which radars cover Hyattville?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KRIW (Riverton, WY), about 92 miles south-southwest. 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 Hyattville | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KRIW Riverton, WY | 92 mi south-southwest | 8,500 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KBLX Billings, MT | 121 mi north-northwest | 12,900 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KUDX Rapid City, SD | 237 mi east | 39,100 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.
