Which radars cover Lewisburg?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KHPX (Fort Campbell, KY), about 25 miles 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 Lewisburg	View
KHPX Fort Campbell, KY	25 mi southwest	1,500 ft	Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground
KOHX Nashville, TN	55 mi south-southeast	4,100 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KLVX Louisville, KY	88 mi northeast	7,900 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.
