Color Bar Graphs

The color graphs are designed as an intuitive way to gauge the weather at a glance. The left color bar graph represents the respective Indoor/Outdoor temperature, heat index or dew point of the current display mode. The right graph represents the respective Indoor/Outdoor humidity. As the measurements change, the number of illuminated bars changes automatically. The higher the temperature and humidity, the taller the bars. Lower temperatures and humidity show shorter bars.

NOAA Weather Radio

NOAA Weather Radio All Hazards (NWR) is a nationwide network of radio stations broadcasting continuous weather information directly from a nearby National Weather Service office. It is the lone government-operated radio system that provides direct warnings to the public for natural and man- made hazards, from floods to forest fires to oil spills. NWR broadcasts National Weather Service warnings, watches, forecasts and other hazard information 24 hours a day. These broadcasts air on one of 7 channels.
