What does the Bundaberg weather radar show?
The radar captures rainfall intensity over a 512 km radius, detecting showers, storms and cloud bands moving across the Burnett region. The on-page display uses a 512 loop to track movement over the past hour — the same as the bom radar bundaberg 512 loop available from the Bureau. For additional layers, you can also view bundaberg weather radar weatherzone or check a weather radar bundaberg 7 days outlook via our Brisbane Weather page.
How accurate is the Bundaberg radar?
It offers reliable detection of moderate to heavy rain within about 200 km of the site, but accuracy diminishes at the outer edge of the 512 km range due to the earth’s curvature and beam height. Around Bundaberg itself, watch for false echoes from sea clutter or local interference. For critical decisions, always combine radar data with the latest Severe Weather Warning from the Seve Weather Warning page.
What is the range of the Bundaberg weather radar?
Approximately 512 km, covering Bundaberg to Maryborough, the Coral Sea, and parts of the inland Burnett region. The best resolution occurs within the first 200 km.
How often does the Bundaberg radar update?
It scans every 10 minutes, producing a new image shortly after each scan. The live radar above refreshes automatically to show you the latest available loop.
Where can I find the Bundaberg radar loop?
The live radar above provides a continuous 512 loop. You can also find the official loop on the Bureau of Meteorology website or through third-party sites such as Weatherzone.
