Which radars cover Dugway?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KMTX (Salt Lake City, UT), about 73 miles north-northeast. 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 Dugway	View
KMTX Salt Lake City, UT	73 mi north-northeast	6,000 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation
KICX Cedar City, UT	183 mi south	25,100 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KSFX Pocatello, ID	199 mi north	28,900 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.
