Which radars cover Schulter?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KINX (Tulsa, OK), about 51 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 Schulter | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KINX Tulsa, OK | 51 mi north-northeast | 3,600 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KTLX Oklahoma City, OK | 75 mi west | 6,300 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KSRX Fort Smith, AR | 91 mi east | 8,300 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.
