Which radars cover Fulford?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KGJX (Grand Junction, CO), about 89 miles west-southwest. 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 Fulford	View
KGJX Grand Junction, CO	89 mi west-southwest	8,100 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation
KFTG Denver/Boulder, CO	114 mi east	11,700 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KCYS Cheyenne, WY	149 mi northeast	18,000 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.
