Do weather radios transmit other types of information besides weather alerts?
Beyond weather concerns, the Department of Homeland Security and Civil Defense have joined the program to warn the public of things like terrorist attacks, chemical spills and amber alerts. The current certified radios allow for 29 different warnings. How much do weather radios cost? These radios can be purchased at all BI-LO’s in your viewing area at a special WBTV and Bi-Lo price of $34.99 from now through the first week in July. Click here for more information about NOAA.
