noaaweatherradio.orgHere are the latest commonly used NOAA Weather Radio frequencies and where to find more details.
- NOAA Weather Radio (NWR) broadcasts on seven VHF frequencies: 162.400, 162.425, 162.450, 162.475, 162.500, 162.525, and 162.550 MHz. These are the standard NWR channels nationwide.[5][8]
- In practice, NWR is operated by local NWS offices and covers all 50 states plus territories, so your local station may be on one of the seven frequencies above.[3][8]
- Some outlets note that updates or maintenance can temporarily affect specific transmitters, but the seven frequencies remain the backbone of the network.[2]
- If you’re unsure which frequency to monitor in Grapevine, TX, you can program a receiver to all seven NWR frequencies and listen for local alerts from your nearest NWS office.[8][3]
Quick reference example for planning:
- 162.400 MHz
- 162.425 MHz
- 162.450 MHz
- 162.475 MHz
- 162.500 MHz
- 162.525 MHz
- 162.550 MHz
Illustration
- A simple way to visualize this is to imagine seven parallel lanes carrying weather alerts; your radio should listen to all seven to ensure you don’t miss a local alert.[8]
If you’d like, I can pull the most up-to-date local NWR info for the Dallas–Fort Worth area and list the specific transmitter IDs and expected coverage. I can also help you configure a simple scan setup on a compatible radio.[8]
