YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

In this episode, host Emily Gracey explores why NOAA Weather Radio is still one of the most reliable tools in emergency preparedness. Hear how it saved Dr. Neil Jacobs during a deadly tornado, and learn from Bruce Jones of Midland Radios about how to set one up, why it still matters in 2025, and what’s next for the weather radio network.

If you care about hurricane safety, disaster communication, or prepping for power outages, this conversation explains why a $50 weather radio might save your life.
