Thanks, Roy. Yes, it’s a great new capability. And it sounds like it will allow for a back door pipeline for county emergency messages to find their way quickly onto other TV and radio broadcasting outlets.

Just so everyone is clear. This allows Co. OEM to be a message originator and have that message use the NOAA radio system. I.E. it's not for weather alerts per se. It can be for response to a weather event, but specific response and preparedness information for the public. Not a forecast.

Al, your smartphone may already do it. It all depends if the EOC alert texts get pushed over to the NOAA API servers. All the weather alerts we see on our phones are available as text products on the NOAA servers that can be accessed by weather apps for free. There is a lot of data available like hour-by-hour forecasts, general forecasts, forecast discussion, special statements, watches, warnings, emergency, etc.
It is a little bit of a process to drill down to a specific area, but easy for apps to do. We’ll have to see if this is the case whenever they actually post one.
