ABOUT THE NATIONAL WEATHER RADIO
SYSTEM
The National Weather Service (NWS) is an agency within
the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration
(NOAA) that operates a nationwide network of radio
stations known as the NOAA Weather Radio (NWR).
The NWR radio system broadcasts warning information
for all types of hazards both natural and technological.
Working in conjunction with the Emergency Alert System
(EAS), NWR is an all-in-one hazards radio network and is
considered to be the single source of all comprehensive
weather and emergency information.
A nationwide network, the NWR consists of more than
800 stations in the United States, Puerto Rico, the U.S.
Virgin Islands and U.S. Pacic Territories. Broadcasts are
designed to meet local needs. Routine programming is
repeated every few minutes and consists of local forecast,
regional conditions and marine forecasts. Additional
information, including river stages and climatic data,
is also provided. During emergencies, these routine
broadcasts are interrupted to report specific warnings,
watches or other critical information.
