NOAA Weather Radio |
A NOAA Weather Radio should be as common in homes and public places as smoke detectors. When hazardous weather or other life-threatening situations are about to occur, the NOAA Weather Radio helps to alert you to impending hazards and provide lead time to take precautions, find shelter or reach safety.
