Weather
Your radio can tune in to broadcasts by the United States National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Weather Radio and Environment Canada
Weatheradio.
You can listen to a weather channel or set your radio to alert you to emergency
weather broadcasts that interrupt routine broadcasts. When you listen to weather
channel, you cannot use your radio in scan mode or for two-way communications.
Both NOAA and Environment Canada have transmitters located throughout the
United States and Canada, respectively. These transmitters broadcast watches,
forecasts, and other information 24 hours a day.
Note: NOAA weather radio stations are assigned to cover specific areas and service
may be limited. Please check with your local weather office for frequency and
details, or visit www.nws.noaa.gov/nwr in the US or
www.msc-smc.ec.gc.ca/cd/factsheets/wxradio in Canada to view the appropriate
transmitter for your area. The use of the NOAA logo does not provide an
