Which radars cover Fulton?

The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KCRP (Corpus Christi, TX), about 35 miles southwest. 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 Fulton	View
KCRP Corpus Christi, TX	35 mi southwest	2,200 ft	Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground
KEWX San Antonio, TX	128 mi north-northwest	14,000 ft	Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms
KBRO Brownsville, TX	151 mi south	18,300 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.
