Which radars cover Osino?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KLRX (Elko, NV), about 61 miles west-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 Osino	View
KLRX Elko, NV	61 mi west-southwest	4,700 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KMTX Salt Lake City, UT	169 mi east	22,000 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KCBX Boise, ID	179 mi north	24,200 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.
