ALERTS SELECTION
Your Weather Radio contains all NWR events (alerts) pre-programmed; many of them
are set to ON by default.
There are three events (alerts) categories may be displayed – Advisory, Watch or
Warning
Advisory- an advisory is issued when a hazardous weather or hydrologic event is
occurring, imminent or likely. Advisories are for less serious conditions than warnings,
which cause significant inconvenience and if caution is not exercised, could lead to
situations that may threaten life or property
Watch – alerts you to potential severe weather approaching your area. It does not mean
severe weather occur, but that the right conditions exist which could lead to severe
storms. You should be prepared for the weather to deteriorate rapidly.
Warning – states the severe weather is imminent or present in your vicinity. You should
immediately take precautions to protect yourself and your family.
Please see page 59 for a list of NWS events (alerts) and decide what events you would
like to receive and what you would like to disable.
