About Weather Alert

When the WX100 receives a weather alert:
• It sounds an alert siren.
• A description of the alert appears.
• An indicator on the front of the radio lights.
If the radio receives more than one weather alert at the same
time, it displays information about each alert.
The alert descriptions your radio can display are based on a list of specific
weather alert types published by the NWS. For a list of all the alert descriptions
that your radio can display, see NWS Weather Alert Event Code Descriptions on
Page 20 - 21.
Caution: The NWS uses sophisticated weather models to determine an alert's
effective time. However, the end of an alert does not necessarily
mean that the related weather emergency is over.
