Tallahassee NOAA radio offline during severe weather threat

The NOAA Weather Radio in Tallahassee is currently offline as severe weather and tornadoes approach the area. The National Weather Service announced the outage, advising residents to use alternative methods for weather updates. This is the second outage in recent weeks, following a previous incident during heavy rainfall. A Verizon communication line issue was blamed for the earlier disruption, and a similar problem is suspected this time. Verizon is investigating the current outage, which has not been promptly reported online. Residents are encouraged to ensure their phones can receive emergency alerts and to follow trusted media for updates.
