a good weather radio
Just returned from a trip to Oklahoma and while on the trip I broke out our old crank style weather radio/flashlight. Cranked my bloody arm off and barely got static. Long story short am in the market...

So a weather radio will work with no signals of any kind?
Mostly? They pick up radio wave signals from the various NWS stations. That being said, my very good quality Midland weather radio quit picking up a signal because our house sits low on a lake; and not that the surrounding hills are dotted with cell towers, it's like the NWS signal is blocked :-(
For the most part, a battery-operated weather radio will always work. Personally, I like the ones with a volume control for the alert signal, because they can be loud enough to raise the dead inside an RV!
