Do You Have A Weather Radio?
Tis the season for severe weather in Alabama. Our spring tornado season is here, and now is the time to think about your family’s severe weather safety plan. Blog readers know the deal; you should never rely on an outdoor warning siren to alert you to an approaching tornado. Every home and business must have a NOAA Weather Radio to guarantee you get the warning.
This year, ABC 33/40 is working with Midland Radio to make these radios available to you on a widespread and inexpensive basis. This year, the Midland WR-100 NOAA Weather Radio will be available in all Publix and Handy TV locations across North-Central Alabama; look for this display…

I’ve tried this radio and another one, and they just don’t work where I live. I’ve even added an external antenna to each of them. They’ll pick up the forecast OK, but if storms approach, they go crazy saying they have lost signal. I just turn them off because they wake me up at all hours. I wish there was an alternative or NOAA could boost their signal some.

James;
Just out of curiosity, has 3340 or 3340 weather ever considered developing an internet “toolbar”, or one specialized for the weather? Just wondering.
