Skywarn Recognition Day

The ninth annual Skywarn Recognition special event will take place Saturday, December 1st.

Skywarn Recognition Day is the National Weather Service's way of expressing its appreciation to Amateur Radio operators for their commitment to help keep communities safe.

During the 24-hour special event, Amateur Radio operators, working together with their local National Weather Service offices, will activate Amateur Radio stations and work as a team to contact other hams around the world.

This celebration of a lifesaving partnership is cosponsored by the National Weather Service and the American Radio Relay League.
