I'm looking to buy a weather alert radio that has the local

doesn't blast you out of bed for a river valley flood warning
that is 50 miles away.
Do you guys have any recommendations?
Thx.
Look for any weather radio that has S.A.M.E. in order for it to be
programmed properly you'll need to know your county FIPS code but that
can be found online.

You can also get regular scanners that have this feature.

Thanks for the link, Keith.
hey no problem, I just remembered I have a CD that has the FIPS code
for every state and every county state code is 39 and your county code
is 103, Also some weather radios will allow you to enter several
codes, in other words if you want to hear alerts for neighboring
areas, like the ones that would get hit before you would so you have
advance warning.

Cool, that's what I'm looking for instead of hearing the alarm
go off and tell me the Chagrin river is at flood stage at 2am.
Thanks again.
