We recently wrote about systems which provide severe weather alerts to the general public.  In writing that, we extolled the virtues of having a “weather radio” – a specialty radio that allows you to listen to and monitor the NOAA Weather Radio All Hazards (NWR) system.

We just read on KMGH channel 7’s website that all Front Range area King Soopers are offering a very good deal on a Midland WR-100 radio.  These are similar to the WR-300 model we discussed previously – just with fewer bells and whistles.  The WR-100 retails for $49.99 but through September at area King Soopers stores you can buy one for $29.99. 

You can find more information on channel 7’s website including a list of area King Soopers stores and even a video that walks you through how to set the radio up.  This is a great deal and we would encourage everyone to take advantage of it.
