Which radars cover Fouke?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KSHV (Shreveport, LA), about 56 miles south. 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 Fouke	View
KSHV Shreveport, LA	56 mi south	4,200 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KSRX Fort Smith, AR	143 mi north	16,800 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KLZK Little Rock, AR	143 mi northeast	16,800 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.
