Most people know of the NOAA Weather Radio as the (usually little white) box that wakes you up in the middle of the night to let you know there is a storm warning in your area. However, in addition to warnings, our radio also broadcasts the most up to date weather forecasts, climate, regional weather observations, and several other products 24 hours a day. We send our broadcast out across 20 transmitters placed throughout eastern KY, in effort to provide the best reception across eastern Kentucky's hilly terrain. To ensure our system and your radios are working properly, we perform a live routine weekly test on Wednesdays between 11:00 a.m. and Noon eastern time, as is being demonstrated by Meteorologist-In-Charge Shawn. These images also show the console with which we run the test and where the weather radio broadcast suites are created.
