The ones you can buy at Publix, Walmart, Home Depot for$24-$40 are all programmable to be county specific.
We have a Midland from Publix, no bells and whistles, but does the basic essentials very well.
Between the weather radio and the weather maps available on the computer, one doesn't really need much else.
I suppose some get comfort watching the weather newscasters on TV....too much sensationalism for me!!
