Which radars cover Conway?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KMVX (Grand Forks, ND), about 51 miles south-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 Conway	View
KMVX Grand Forks, ND	51 mi south-southeast	3,700 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KMBX Minot AFB, ND	147 mi west	17,600 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KBIS Bismarck, ND	176 mi southwest	23,600 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.
