Which radars cover Terral?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KFDR (Frederick, OK), about 68 miles west-northwest. 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 Terral	View
KFDR Frederick, OK	68 mi west-northwest	5,400 ft	Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly
KFWS Dallas/Fort Worth, TX	99 mi south-southeast	9,400 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation
KTLX Oklahoma City, OK	106 mi north-northeast	10,500 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.
