National Weather Service Weather Radio (NWR) is a service provided by all NWS offices, free of charge, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Routine programming includes the latest weather conditions, weather summaries for the vicinity and surrounding areas, short term forecasts of significant weather expected within the next 1-3 hours, and forecasts of temperatures and precipitation out to 5 days. One of the most important reasons to own a weather radio is the ability to receive up-to-the-minute information on severe weather, such as severe thunderstorms, large hail, strong and damaging winds, tornadoes, and flash floods. Many weather radio receivers are equipped with a tone alert which will be activated the moment severe weather threatens your immediate area. Weather Radio is the fastest and most reliable means of receiving life-threatening weather information! NWR is a computerized voice broadcast system that automatically translates most written National Weather Service forecasts and statements into synthesized-voice recordings, and broadcast them on Weather Radio.
