NOAA All – Hazards Weather Radio

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) All-Hazards Weather Alert Radio is a quick way to receive weather warnings and information, providing advanced warnings for protective actions before an emergency. Recommended models with Specific Area Message Encoding (S.A.M.E) technology, such as the Midland Radio WR120 and WR300, can be purchased through Workday. The WR120 can be programmed to receive alerts for specific counties, while the WR300 also allows customization of the types of hazard alerts received. For more information, please visit the NOAA website.
