Which radars cover Strawberry?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KMUX (San Francisco, CA), about 61 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 Strawberry	View
KMUX San Francisco, CA	61 mi south-southeast	4,700 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KDAX Sacramento, CA	62 mi northeast	4,800 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KBBX Beale AFB, CA	121 mi north-northeast	12,800 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.
