When the battery level is LOW, the battery icon and back light will blink and the radio will be turned OFF after 10 minutes automatically.

NOAA WEATHER RADIO (NWR) ALL HAZARDS

NWR is an all-hazards public warning system, broadcasting forecast, warning and emergency information 24 hours a day directly to the public.

7 NWR Broadcast Frequencies include: 162.400MHz, 162.425 MHz, 162.450 MHz, 162.475 MHz, 162.500 MHz, 162.525 MHz, 162.550MHz

Broadcast range from the weather radio transmitter is approximately 40 miles. The effective range depends on such things as terrain and quality of the receiver and indoor/outdoor antenna. Log onto http://www.nws.noaa.gov/nwr/nwrbro.htm to see which frequency best serves your area. “All-Hazard” messages are:

• Weather emergencies

• Chemical & biological hazard

• Tornados

• Oil spill

• Hurricanes

• Nuclear power plant emergencies

• Floods

• Maritime accidents

• Blizzards

• Train derailment

• Natural emergencies

• National emergencies

• Earthquakes

• Homeland security warnings

• Forest fires

• Terrorists attacks

• Avalanches

• Civil emergencies

• Technological emergencies

• Amber alerts

Non-weather emergency messages will be broadcast over NWR when:

•(1) public safety is involved

•(2) the message comes from an official government source

•(3) time is critical

The National Response Plan assigns responsibility to NOAA’s National Weather Service (NWS) to broadcast non-weather emergency messages.

Non-weather emergency messages will be broadcast over NWR at the request of local and/or state officials who wish to broadcast a message on NWR, the official provides text information about the hazard and the appropriate response directly to the local NWS offices. NWS offices have set up pre-arranged agreements to facilitate and speed the process.
