Which radars cover Ramah?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KPUX (Pueblo, CO), about 46 miles south. 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 Ramah	View
KPUX Pueblo, CO	46 mi south	3,200 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KFTG Denver/Boulder, CO	50 mi north-northwest	3,600 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KGLD Goodland, KS	133 mi east	15,000 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.
