How well can the network see Moriah?
The nearest Doppler radar is KCXX (Burlington, VT), 36 miles to the NNE. A WSR-88D's lowest routine scan sits half a degree above horizontal, and the earth curves away beneath it, so by the time that beam reaches Moriah its center is about 2,300 ft above ground. That is comfortably inside the useful range. The lowest scan passes low enough over Moriah to show rotation in the part of a storm where tornadoes actually form. Moriah is closer to its radar than 61% of US cities.
The closest instrument actually measuring the air is K6B0 · Middlebury/State Arpt on the ASOS/AWOS network, 22 miles away. Far enough that "current conditions" for Moriah is an educated reading of somewhere else, worth knowing before you plan around a single temperature.
Beam height is the standard 4/3-earth approximation for the 0.5° scan and assumes normal refraction; it is where the center of the beam is, not its edges, and unusual temperature profiles bend it. Radar siting from the NWS WSR-88D network, station positions from the New York observing network as of this build.
