Which radars cover Midway?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KMTX (Salt Lake City, UT), about 72 miles northwest. 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 Midway	View
KMTX Salt Lake City, UT	72 mi northwest	5,900 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KSFX Pocatello, ID	189 mi north-northwest	26,600 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KGJX Grand Junction, CO	200 mi east-southeast	29,300 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.
