Which radars cover Canyonville?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KMAX (Medford, OR), about 65 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 Canyonville	View
KMAX Medford, OR	65 mi south-southeast	5,100 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KBHX Eureka, CA	176 mi south-southwest	23,500 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KRTX Portland, OR	193 mi north	27,600 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.
