Which radars cover Clio?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KEOX (Fort Rucker, AL), about 19 miles south-southeast. 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 Clio	View
KEOX Fort Rucker, AL	19 mi south-southeast	1,100 ft	Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground
KMXX Maxwell AFB, AL	58 mi north	4,400 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KEVX Eglin AFB, FL	81 mi south-southwest	7,000 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation

Beam height is the center of the 0.5° scan above the radar, with standard refraction. Mountains near a radar can block it further.
