Bixby, Oklahoma experiences core Tornado Alley — highest tornado frequency in US. The Bixby rain radar delivers real-time precipitation data from KTLX (Oklahoma City), updated every 4–6 minutes at up to 250-meter resolution — showing exactly when and where rain will arrive, not just whether it might.
