Stream Live NOAA Weather Radio to Your Computer or Mobile Device
It's quite likely that many of you are familiar with NOAA Weather Radio from the National Weather Service. For those of you who aren't, NOAA offers weather forecasts, hourly temperature info, watches/warnings any other weather related info for cities/metro areas around the country.
Now, many of these local stations are streaming their content on the Internet. All you need is RealPlayer. If you have a mobile device/phone with streaming capabilities (MP3), these reports can also be delivered on mobile devices. Many of these streams are made available by third parties like universities and Weather Underground.
Those of you outside of the U.S. who have an interest in meteorology can also listen in.
Remember, not every station is streaming live on the web. Here's a map that offers info about all NOAA Weather Radio stations.
Also, via RSS, you can be notified of new/updated content for some stations. This is an experimental service. Event-driven products such as watches and warnings are not included at the present time.
