SKYWARN is a program established by the National
Weather Service in the 1970s with a goal of obtaining
critical weather information during times of severe
weather. Skywarn works with local organizations, such as
Ham Radio groups and private citizens who have a desire
to serve their communities. Their information,
when combined with sophisticated technology such as
Doppler radar, satellite and lightning displays, helps
NWS meteorologists in their primary mission... the
issuance of warnings and advisories for the protection
of life and property.
