Which radars cover Narcissa?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KINX (Tulsa, OK), about 56 miles 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 Narcissa	View
KINX Tulsa, OK	56 mi southwest	4,100 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KSGF Springfield, MO	89 mi east-northeast	8,100 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation
KSRX Fort Smith, AR	109 mi south-southeast	11,000 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.
