WEATHER BAND OPERATION 

What is the NOAA Weather Radio/ Weatheradio Canada? 

NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) is a nationwide system 

that broadcasts local weather emergency information 24 hours a day via the 

National Weather Service (NWS) network. The U.S. network has more than 530 

stations covering the 50 states as well as the adjacent coastal waters, Puerto Rico, 

the U.S. Virgin Islands and the U.S. Pacific Territories. Each local area has its own 

transmitting station and there are a total of seven broadcasting frequencies used. 

A similar system is available in Canada under the Weatheradio Canada service 

administered by Environment Canada.
