Radio Alerts and Online Videos

By Staff | May 29, 2024

NOAA Weather Radio All Hazards (NWR) is a nationwide network of radio stations broadcasting continuous weather information directly from the nearest National Weather Service office. These give official Weather Service warnings, watches, forecasts, and other hazard information 24 hours a day, seven days a week. To receive information even during power outages, you should have an emergency weather radio with batteries or a crank. They work even during the most damaging storms.

Identification codes for Lee and adjoining counties:

Fort Myers Channel 4 (162.475 MHz)

Lee – 012071

Collier – 012021

DeSoto – 012027

Charlotte – 012015

Hendry – 012051

WGCU-90.1 FM is the Southwest Florida affiliate of the Florida Public Radio Emergency Network. It will stay on the air during power outages and continue broadcasting information you need to stay safe.

Working with the Florida Division of Emergency Management and the Lee County Emergency Operations Center, WGCU will also provide frequent updates after a major weather event.

Our online videos will help guide you through hurricane season with simple, clear instructions about preparation, evacuation and shelters, and safety strategies for making decisions after the storm has passed.

Lee County produced these videos during the COVID-19 pandemic when regular in-person Hurricane Seminars were not possible, and they became a valuable resource–available at any time. They’re short, easy to follow, and come with fun quizes at the end to make sure you’re “Hurricane Ready!”
