Where To Get Weather Radios?
|
|
Manufacturers offer weather radios both with and without the special alerting features. We recommend a radio with Emergency Alert System (EAS) capability also known as SAME - Specific Area Message Encoder capability so you can receive warning messages instantly. Some models permit you to select which event you wish to be alerted. Look for these features.
Disclaimer: The listing of manufacturers on this page does not imply endorsement by the State of Washington or the Washington Military Department, Emergency Management Division, the National Weather Service and NOAA. The purchaser accepts all responsibility for any consequences from purchasing equipment from the referenced companies and installation and use of their products.
