Apr. 6: Weather Radios editorial

Posted: Updated:

Strong storms moved through the Ark-La-Tex this week, toppling trees onto highways and homes, knocking out power.

One thing we can always count on in our part of the country is severe weather as those storms track West to East. That's why at KSLA News 12 we take the threat of severe weather seriously.

Using state-of-the-art equipment, our Meteorologists do their best to warn you in advance. There is another tool you should have to keep your family safe. It's a weather radio!

Even when you're sleeping it can alert you to a dangerous storm, giving you time to take cover.  It's a way to keep in touch with the outside world when your power goes out.

Once again, KSLA Stormtracker 12 has teamed up with Walgreens to make these Midland Weather Radios available for sale. Look for this display at most area Walgreen's stores.  

Stay safe. I'm James Smith.
