Which radars cover Davis?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KTLX (Oklahoma City, OK), about 63 miles north. 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 Davis | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KTLX Oklahoma City, OK | 63 mi north | 4,900 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KFDR Frederick, OK | 103 mi west | 10,000 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
| KFWS Dallas/Fort Worth, TX | 129 mi south | 14,200 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.
