Which radars cover Rob Roy?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KIND (Indianapolis, IN), about 63 miles 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 Rob Roy	View
KIND Indianapolis, IN	63 mi southeast	4,900 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KLOT Chicago, IL	104 mi north-northwest	10,200 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KILX Lincoln, IL	110 mi west	11,200 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.
