Purchased radio for bad weather. Radio does scare you when it goes off. Has capacity for multiple programming.

all we got was static inside the house, but if I took the unit outside, it worked fine. I don't think I want to stand outside to see if a tornado is approaching!

Couldn’t give a 0. Do not buy this product. It does not work and I was unable to get my money back from Best Buy even after only owning for less than a week

I purchased this weather radio to make sure we get all alerts about tornados, hail and all kind of crazy stuff going down in TX. The TV weather people cover a good amount of area and many times miss our immediate area. So, I thought we were set. The radio was set up for the county we live in. Well, since than we had a very bad storm with hail and heavy rain that flooded our backyard. It was so bad, the rain was going sideways and hail dropped of the size of golf balls. TV went out (satelite is not the smartest thing), so we couldn't get news of what was going on. I was sitting and staring at my newly set up weather radio to go off and told my family to get ready for shelter if need to be. Do you know when the alert came thru? 30 minutes after the storm, when we all sat down to watch a movie, freaked us out. I already have a handcrancking weather radio for less amount.
It announces child abduction very well though. But for weather, would not recommend.
