Weather Band
Weather Radio is a service of the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration,
NOAA, of the U.S. Department of Com-
merce. Weather messages are repeated
every four to six minutes and are routinely
revised every one to three hours, or more
frequently if needed. Most of the stations
operate 24 hours daily. During severe
weather, National Weather Service fore-
casters can interrupt the routine weather
broadcasts and substitute special warning
messages. If you have a question concern-
ing NOAA Weather Radio, please contact
your nearest National Weather Service
Office, or write to National Weather Ser-
vice, Attn: W/OM11, National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration, 1325 East-
