NWR New York Coverage

Heavy Precipitation for Pacific Northwest; Heavy Snow Diminishing across New England

Multiple rounds of heavy to excessive rainfall, mountain snow and gusty winds will impact the Northwest U.S. into the central and northern Rockies this week. Urban, small stream, and moderate to isolated major river flooding are also expected across the Cascades through mid-week. Meanwhile, the heavy snow threat across the Northeast will finally diminish this evening. Read More >

NWR Coverage

Coverage Map Notes

The coverage statistics and maps are calculated using a computer model and station data assuming ideal conditions. Coverage may be 5 to 10 percent below the computer predicted coverage for the following reasons:

The computer model is sensitive to antenna performance. Antenna performance is a function of local conditions, causing signals to be stronger signal level in some directions than others.
Placement of NWR antennas is dictated by the tower owner, which may result in a less than ideal set up.
The antenna may be affected by nearby structures or bodies of water.
In some special instances, the antenna may have been intentionally adjusted to be "directional" and provide better coverage to a specific area to the detriment of other areas.
Because of variations in local site conditions, the performance of an individual transmitter and antenna may be less than predicted or expected.
Seasonal environmental conditions, such as icing or heavy rain, affect performance of a transmitter station and its various components, particularly those subject to continuous weather exposure.
The coverage maps are shown in a single color format, which relates to an estimated signal level.
