Which radars cover Finley?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KSRX (Fort Smith, AR), about 93 miles northeast. 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 Finley	View
KSRX Fort Smith, AR	93 mi northeast	8,600 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation
KTLX Oklahoma City, OK	123 mi northwest	13,200 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KINX Tulsa, OK	128 mi north	14,000 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.
