Which radars cover Cibecue?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KFSX (Flagstaff, AZ), about 55 miles northwest. 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 Cibecue	View
KFSX Flagstaff, AZ	55 mi northwest	4,100 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KIWA Phoenix, AZ	85 mi southwest	7,500 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation
KEMX Tucson, AZ	148 mi south	17,700 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.
