Which radars cover Hingham?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KTFX (Great Falls, MT), about 88 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 Hingham	View
KTFX Great Falls, MT	88 mi south-southwest	7,900 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation
KGGW Glasgow, MT	176 mi east	23,600 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KMSX Missoula, MT	196 mi west-southwest	28,200 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.
