What is SKYWARN?

SKYWARN is a plan sponsored by the National Weather Service (NWS), using volunteer observers for reporting all types of hazardous weather. Amateur radio operators and weather observers, generally operating through local organizations, are ideally equipped to contribute to the SKYWARN program.

Skywarn is not only an amateur radio program. The National Weather Service has formal agreements with the the Civil Air Patrol, The Coast Guard and its Auxiliary, The Federal Emergency Management Agency and many other governmental agencies.

There are also many other private citizen weather associations who participate in providing weather reports to the forecast office. The forecast office gratefully accepts information from all.

Why Have SKYWARN?

The NWS Office in Upton, New York (OKX) provides a variety of weather services. Warnings, Advisories, Watches, Statements, Forecasts, and Observations are provided for up to twenty million people in twenty counties in three states and the adjacent coastal waters.

It is impossible for NWS Meteorologists and Hydrologists to observe conditions in each region during hazardous weather. SKYWARN volunteers become the additional eyes and ears of these scientists, providing information that assists the NWS in issuing timely and accurate warnings to save lives and protect property.
