SAME Alert Level Codes
There are four (4) alert level codes that provide important
active weather information. These alert codes are checked
against the FIPS codes location list. When proper “Alert”
conditions are met, the radio will switch to the WX Alert
mode on the WX Alert channel and sound an alarm.
NOTE
When the alarm sounds, the display will show the
Alert icon, SAME letter icons and SAME Alert
letter/numbers flashing.
Alert Level Codes:
A1 = Warning – Those events that pose a significant threat
to public safety and/or property. The probability of
occurrence and location is high and the onset time is
relativity short.
A2 = Watch – Events that meet the classification of Warning
(above), but either the onset time, probability of
occurrence or location is uncertain.
A3 = Statement – A message containing follow up
information to a Warning or Watch.
A4 = Test – Brief Voice text of the weekly test describing the
service provided, area covered, and application of the
warning alarm tone and NWR SAME code. These tests
normally occur on Wednesday between 11 a.m. and
1 p.m. local time with some variations to accommodate
local requirements.
