Which radars cover Eureka?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KMTX (Salt Lake City, UT), about 92 miles north. 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 Eureka	View
KMTX Salt Lake City, UT	92 mi north	8,400 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation
KICX Cedar City, UT	169 mi south-southwest	22,000 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KGJX Grand Junction, CO	217 mi east-southeast	33,500 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.
