Which radars cover Okmulgee?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KINX (Tulsa, OK), about 44 miles north-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 Okmulgee	View
KINX Tulsa, OK	44 mi north-northeast	3,000 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KTLX Oklahoma City, OK	77 mi west-southwest	6,500 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation
KSRX Fort Smith, AR	93 mi east-southeast	8,500 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation

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