Haskell, TX Live Doppler Radar
Live radar for Haskell, Haskell County: every NWS radar combined, rain, snow and ice colors, flash-flood risk, storm tracks and official warnings.
What weather hits Haskell?
Since 1996, the National Weather Service has logged damaging thunderstorm winds on 79 days in the Haskell forecast zone and Haskell County — the most common reported hazard around Haskell, mostly in June and May. Next come heavy snow & winter storms (27 days) and flash flooding (20 days).
| Hazard | Days reported | Most recent | Worst on record |
|---|---|---|---|
| Damaging thunderstorm winds | 79 | Apr 2026 | Jun 15, 2002 · 1 death |
| Heavy snow & winter storms | 27 | Jan 2026 | Feb 24, 2003 · $7,000 damage |
| Flash flooding | 20 | Apr 2024 | Aug 14, 2005 · $200,000 damage |
| High winds | 8 | Mar 2025 | Feb 24, 2007 · $2,000 damage |
| Extreme cold & wind chill | 7 | Jan 2026 | Feb 14, 2021 · $113,000 damage |
| Flooding | 6 | Mar 2023 | Oct 16, 2018 · $2.3 million damage |
| Ice storms & sleet | 5 | Oct 2020 | Jan 12, 2007 · $1,000 damage |
| Wildfires | 5 | Sep 2011 | — |

How much snow does Haskell get?
A normal year brings about 3.1 inches of snow to Haskell, based on NOAA's 1991–2020 climate normals for the Haskell weather station in town. The snowiest month is usually February (1.4 in).
| Oct | Nov | Dec | Jan | Feb | Mar | Apr | May |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.0 | 0.5 | 0.8 | 0.4 | 1.4 | 0.0 | 0.0 | 0.0 |
Normal snowfall in inches. TALON Pro compares this season's snow at your location with these normals as winter goes on.
Which radars cover Haskell?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KDYX (Dyess AFB, TX), about 51 miles south-southeast. 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 Haskell | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KDYX Dyess AFB, TX | 51 mi south-southeast | 3,700 ft | Good — most storms and steady rain or snow show clearly |
| KFDR Frederick, OK | 94 mi north-northeast | 8,700 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KLBB Lubbock, TX | 125 mi west-northwest | 13,500 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.
Tornado & hail history near Haskell
Since 1950, NOAA has recorded 118 tornadoes within 25 miles of Haskell, 26 of them EF2/F2 or stronger. Most came in May and April. The strongest was an F4 on March 13, 1953, which passed about 15 miles northwest of town and caused 17 deaths. The most recent was a tornado of unknown strength on June 8, 2025, which touched down about 23 miles northeast of town.
Hail: 413 reports of 1-inch or larger hail within 25 miles since 1955, 81 of them 2 inches or more; the largest was 4.50-inch hail on April 26, 2015.

On TALON you get Haskell's live radar loop, rain/snow/ice colors, flash-flood risk, storm tracks with arrival times and NWS warnings free; close-up radar and rotation detection are part of TALON Pro.
Haskell radar FAQ
Where is the nearest weather radar to Haskell, TX?
KDYX (Dyess AFB, TX), about 51 miles south-southeast. KFDR (Frederick, OK) is 94 miles away and also covers the area.
Does radar show snow in Haskell?
Yes. TALON colors snow blue, a rain–snow mix pink and freezing rain purple using NOAA's precipitation-type analysis. Over Haskell the lowest scan from KDYX is about 3,700 ft up.
Is TALON's radar for Haskell free?
Yes — the US radar loop, rain/snow/ice colors, flash-flood risk, storm tracks and NWS warnings are free in any browser. Close-up radar, rotation detection and longer forecasts are part of TALON Pro.
Should I rely on radar for my safety?
No app replaces official warnings. When the National Weather Service issues a warning for Haskell, follow it right away — see watch vs. warning.
