Which radars cover Circleville?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KICX (Cedar City, UT), about 51 miles 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 Circleville	View
KICX Cedar City, UT	51 mi southwest	3,700 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KMTX Salt Lake City, UT	214 mi north	32,800 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KESX Las Vegas, NV	224 mi southwest	35,300 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.
