NOAA Weather Radio WXK49 Memphis
About NOAA Weather Radio WXK49 Memphis
This stream carries NOAA Weather Radio station WXK49, which serves the Memphis, Tennessee area on 162.475 MHz. NOAA Weather Radio is the weather and hazard information service of the US National Weather Service, and the station is listed with it as a weather broadcast rather than a music or talk station.
The coverage area is described on the listening site memphisweatherradio.com and includes counties in Tennessee, Mississippi and Arkansas, such as Shelby, Fayette, Haywood and Tipton counties in Tennessee. The site lists the SAME codes used to target alerts to each county. Listeners can expect forecasts, current conditions and warnings, delivered in English. The site does not publish who operates the online relay, and it was designed by Garry Spencer.
The stream is an MP3 feed at 128 kbps. At the time of the last automated check the audio was silent, which can happen between broadcasts or if the relay has a temporary problem, so it may be intermittent. For emergencies, rely on an official weather radio receiver or the National Weather Service rather than an internet stream.
