During periods of severe weather, the normal broadcast cycle is interrupted to bring you constant live updates on watches and warnings. Commercial radio, television, or cable TV companies are encouraged to rebroadcast directly from NOAA Weather Radio.

NOAA Weather Radio has also been designated as the official warning radio for the nation for all type disasters, including earthquakes, hazardous spills, and civil- emergencies. Every household, business, school, and church should make NOAA Weather Radio a necessity item.

In an emergency, each station will transmit a warning tone signal which will activate weather radios that have specially designed receivers. Not all weather radios have this receiver, but all will receive the emergency broadcasts in the normal way. The alarm device is tested each Wednesday between 11 am and Noon when weather

These are available from the National Weather Service, your electronics store, or over the Internet at http://www.nws.noaa.gov/nwr
