How well can the network see Fox?
The nearest Doppler radar is KCCX (State College, PA), 42 miles to the SE. A WSR-88D's lowest routine scan sits half a degree above horizontal, and the earth curves away beneath it, so by the time that beam reaches Fox its center is about 2,800 ft above ground. That is comfortably inside the useful range. The lowest scan passes low enough over Fox to show rotation in the part of a storm where tornadoes actually form. Fox is closer to its radar than 53% of US cities.
The closest instrument actually measuring the air is KDUJ · Du Bois Rgnl on the ASOS/AWOS network, 17 miles away. Far enough that "current conditions" for Fox is an educated reading of somewhere else, worth knowing before you plan around a single temperature.
Beam height is the standard 4/3-earth approximation for the 0.5° scan and assumes normal refraction; it is where the center of the beam is, not its edges, and unusual temperature profiles bend it. Radar siting from the NWS WSR-88D network, station positions from the Pennsylvania observing network as of this build.
