Which radars cover Hollis?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KFDR (Frederick, OK), about 58 miles east-southeast. 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 Hollis	View
KFDR Frederick, OK	58 mi east-southeast	4,400 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KAMA Amarillo, TX	108 mi west-northwest	10,900 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KLBB Lubbock, TX	130 mi west-southwest	14,400 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.
