Which radars cover Concrete?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KATX (Seattle/Tacoma, WA), about 41 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 Concrete	View
KATX Seattle/Tacoma, WA	41 mi southwest	2,800 ft	Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground
KLGX Langley Hill, WA	147 mi southwest	17,500 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KOTX Spokane, WA	199 mi east-southeast	29,100 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.
