Which radars cover Wineglass?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KBLX (Billings, MT), about 98 miles east. 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 Wineglass	View
KBLX Billings, MT	98 mi east	9,400 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation
KTFX Great Falls, MT	132 mi north-northwest	14,700 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KMSX Missoula, MT	188 mi west-northwest	26,300 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.
