Which radars cover Tribbey?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KTLX (Oklahoma City, OK), about 19 miles north-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 Tribbey	View
KTLX Oklahoma City, OK	19 mi north-northwest	1,000 ft	Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground
KINX Tulsa, OK	114 mi northeast	11,700 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KFDR Frederick, OK	118 mi west-southwest	12,400 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.
