Which radars cover Fox?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KTLX (Oklahoma City, OK), about 69 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.

KFWS

Beam height is the center of the 0.5° scan above the radar, with standard refraction. Mountains near a radar can block it further.
