Which radars cover Decaturville?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KHPX (Fort Campbell, KY), about 92 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 Decaturville	View
KHPX Fort Campbell, KY	92 mi north-northeast	8,500 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation
KOHX Nashville, TN	98 mi east-northeast	9,400 ft	Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation
KNQA Memphis, TN	100 mi west	9,600 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.
