I love to be outside searching for that special photo opportunity. The weather that we have had this spring reminds me of the need to stay constantly aware of changing weather conditions – especially when I’m out in the field a distance away from home.
At a recent campout a friend of mine showed me his Acurite Portable Emergency Weather Radio. (See www.acurite.com for more information.) While their we received a severe thunderstorm watch alert. It was nice to have this information. I have 2 weather radios in the house, but have now ordered one of these portables.
This is not a sales pitch. I do not work for Acurite, nor do I get any compensation. I just want to make the reader aware of another option to keep track of weather changes. On line, the price I found was $39.99
Just to make you aware… It’s the Boy Scout in me. “Be Prepared!”
THAT LOOKS LIKE A VERY NICE PORTABLE WEATHER RADIO AND I AGREE . OUR CHATTANOOGA WEATHER PEOPLE HAVE BEEN VISITING PLACES WHERE THEY ARE SOLD AND PROGRAMMING THEM. BEEN VERY POPULAR AND COULD SAVE LIVES . I’M A NUT ABOUT RADIOS AND FLASH LIGHTS AND WE HAVE THEM HANDY .IF STORMY -WE SIT ON THE BASEMENT STAIRS AND KEEP UP WITH THOSE SUPER CELLS. IT SEEMS TENNESSEE IS MORE PRONE FOR TORNADOES NOW AND WE HAVE HAD SEVERAL HITS NEARBY .
