Which radars cover Romeo?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KPUX (Pueblo, CO), about 133 miles northeast. 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 Romeo	View
KPUX Pueblo, CO	133 mi northeast	14,900 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KABX Albuquerque, NM	147 mi south-southwest	17,600 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KGJX Grand Junction, CO	178 mi northwest	24,100 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.
