NOAA Weather Radio
NOAA
Weather Radio broadcasts National Weather Service warnings,
watches, forecasts and other hazard information 24 hours a day.
Weather radios equipped with a special alarm tone feature can
sound an alert and give you immediate information about a
life-threatening situation. Radios equipped with the new digital
technology, called SAME (Specific
Area Message Encoding) alert the listener only
of weather and other emergencies for the county(s) they
programmed into the radio. These radios can be programmed to
receive life-saving messages
broadcast on NOAA Weather Radio
targeted to Hidalgo County. For more information see NOAA
