Radio operators often serve as storm spotters


Radio operators often serve as storm spotters: "When it comes to severe weather, ham radio operators who double as storm spotters may be saving lives.

More than 10,000 thunderstorms, 5,000 floods and 900 tornadoes occur in an average year in the United States. In addition to Doppler radar, it takes many eyes turned toward the sky to help keep up with developing weather situations."
