looking for a recommendation on a weather radio that has the alarm that goes off when a tornado warning is issued.  it would be good if it doubled as a normal clock radio. thanks

Was shopping at Aldi's recently and found they had Oregon Scientific handhend NOAA weather radios there. Model number is WR601. Price is $25.00. It comes with batteries and has a power cord and base for desk top use. It does have a clock. If no Aldi's, check Ebay.

Was just looking at this last night. Seems the consensus is the Midland WR-100 is decent. I found one locally at Fleet Farm for $30. Will probably pick it up today. Works with SAME alerts, etc.

We've been using the Midland WR300.  Not much to say other than it goes off when its supposed to.
