Unsettled Weather Continues in the Southern Plains and Northeast into Mid Week

Two storm systems will continue to bring unsettled weather to the Lower 48 through the middle of the week. Heavy to excessive rainfall may lead to flash flooding over portions of east Texas into the lower Mississippi Valley Tuesday into Wednesday. Severe thunderstorms are possible from portions of the southern Plains into the lower Mississippi Valley Tuesday. Read More >

PROBLEM: Radio beeps roughly once every 10 minutes.

REASON: Some radios know they are supposed to receive a weekly test from the NWS every seven days. If the radio goes for ten days without receiving a test, it gives out one beep every ten minutes. The radio will re-set itself at the next weekly test, or the next watch/warning issuance.

SOLUTION: To cancel the beeping, unplug the radio from the wall, turn the radio over, and remove one battery. Replace the battery and plug the radio back in. The settings on the radio will NOT be affected by this, as the SAME county code, and all other information is stored on a flash memory chip (for the newer radios). You WILL need to re-set the clock.
