Which radars cover Siloam?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KJGX (Robins AFB, GA), about 62 miles south-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 Siloam	View
KJGX Robins AFB, GA	62 mi south-southwest	4,800 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KFFC Atlanta, GA	86 mi west	7,700 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation
KGSP Greer, SC	105 mi north-northeast	10,400 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.
