Default Emergency weather radio

My suggestion - in addition to having the phone alert - is to go to Wal-Mart and buy yourself a $30 emergency weather radio. They can easily be set by you for just your own county. Some people have the radios coded by the fire stations but that is not needed. Do it yourself. If you can program your DVR recorder, you can program the emergency weather radio.

The radio is plugged into a wall socket and also has a 9volt battery backup. It only sounds the alarm when there is a watch or warning for emergency weather such as heavy thunderstorm or tornado.

This a a very good thing to buy to supplement the phone alerts.
