Which radars cover Bluejacket?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KINX (Tulsa, OK), about 51 miles south-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 Bluejacket	View
KINX Tulsa, OK	51 mi south-southwest	3,700 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KSGF Springfield, MO	97 mi east-northeast	9,200 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation
KSRX Fort Smith, AR	112 mi south-southeast	11,400 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.
