Weather Radio Station at Milford Iowa Operating In a Degraded Mode

The NOAA Weather Radio transmitter at Milford, Iowa, serving the Iowa Great Lakes area, will be operating in a degraded mode, with a weak signal strength for the next few days. NWS and telephone company technicians have already replaced some equipment to partially repair damage from a lightning strike last week. Additional telephone equipment parts are on order, and will be installed when they arrive. We apologize for this inconvenience, and will keep this headline updated with the latest information about repair progress. If the signal is too weak for you to understand the broadcast, we invite you to view the local Milford NWS forecast from www.weather.gov/fsd, or use other radio or television sources for weather information.
