Which radars cover Doerun?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KVAX (Moody AFB, GA), about 62 miles east-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 Doerun	View
KVAX Moody AFB, GA	62 mi east-southeast	4,800 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KTLH Tallahassee, FL	68 mi south-southwest	5,500 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KEOX Fort Rucker, AL	91 mi west	8,400 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation

Beam height is the center of the 0.5° scan above the radar, with standard refraction. Mountains near a radar can block it further.
