NOAA Weather Radio (NWR) is a great way to stay informed of the latest, real-time weather conditions, forecasts, and of course watches, warnings and advisories issued directly from your National Weather Service. 📻 Most NWRs allow you to set your location, so you’ll only receive emergency alerts for your area. And the portable NWR option is perfect for camping trips when cell phone service may be unreliable! 🏕️weather.gov/nwr/ #NationalPreparednessMonth

Red graphic lightning bolts emanate from the radio's speaker grille. At the bottom left, the text weather.gov/nwr appears alongside the NOAA and National Weather Service logos.

This was an exceptionally ferocious Mesoscale Convective System that exploded over South Dakota earlier today. The hyper-concentrated lightning core generated wind gusts akin to a Category 4 Hurricane and toppled over entire wind turbines when it ripped through Highmore.

NORTHERN LIGHTS are possible tonight due to a possible geomagnetic storm! This could lead to auroras being visible as far south as Kansas with a camera. If you live in Canada, your odds of seeing Northern Lights are increasing. Severe storms will increase cloud cover across the Northern Plains and Midwest tonight, so this could disrupt viewing.
