Which radars cover Edna?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KINX (Tulsa, OK), about 62 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 Edna	View
KINX Tulsa, OK	62 mi south	4,800 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KSGF Springfield, MO	109 mi east	10,900 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KICT Wichita, KS	122 mi west-northwest	13,000 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.
