NOAA Weather Radio broadcasts NWS
warnings, watches, forecasts and other hazard
information, 24 hours a day. NOAA Weather Radio is not
just for emergencies. It is a round-the-clock source of
weather reports and information to help people prepare
for the day ahead. Each National Weather Service office
tailors its broadcast to suit local needs. Routine
programming is repeated every few minutes and consists
of the local forecast, regional conditions and marine
forecasts. Additional information, including river
stages and climatic data is also provided.
Weather radios equipped with special
alarm-tone features sound alerts to give immediate
information about a life-threatening situation. During
an emergency, National Weather Service forecasters will
interrupt routine weather radio programming and
broadcast a special tone that activates weather radios
in the listening area.
Weather radios can be purchased at your
local electronics store.
