If there is a "weather alert", does the weather alert interrupt the music to notify you of the weather issue?

It does not when listening to Ipod or SD card.I don't know about AM/FM, or I may not have gotten a weather alert.

The weather band is just a constant broadcast and will state any advisories. It's not like an emergency alert on TV that interrupts your programming, it's more like watching the weather channel on your TV.

No it does not. You have to tune the radio yourself to the weather band by switching from your normal cd/aux/radio to the weather band input. It is however easy to do and the the weatherband channel provides constant updates

Yes. It will send alerts to one or more configurable email addresses if the temperature falls above or below configurable temperatures over a configurable amount of time. I have mine set to alert if the temperature is above 90 deg F for more than 15 minutes or below 40 deg F for more than an hour. The alerts are not sent from the device itself, they are sent from the My Total Connect Comfort website. Alerts can also be sent if communication is lost between the thermostat and the website or if a change fails to be sent.

You can turn off the alert weather band but not eliminate the weather band other thing the weather band is independent of the am band and the fm band.

there is a weather alert test button that allows you to confirm the weather alert functions...if you don't have the owners manual you can search on google the type of midland radio you have and pull up the owners manual there.

That being said, I have never had the alarm go off for high wind watches and warnings... It has only sounded for Severe Thunderstorm watches/warnings and tornado watches/warnings... I did not have it this winter, so I don't know if it sounds for winter weather alerts.

As far as I can tell this little radio receiver will automtically home in on the nearest NOAA weather statation. The on/off slide swithch has a third position for weather alerts.

If you leave it on the last setting, which is for alerts and warnings, it will be silent unless an alert is issued in your area. This will run down the battery. I only turn it on to the middle setting when the weather is ominous or I want the forecast. You will receive alerts and warnings on this setting also.

There is an Alert setting that will sound a siren-like sound when there is a weather alert. Normally we turn ours off of that setting so we don't get constant alarms unless it's a BIG event or something has a high probability of occurring at night.

I think this radio doesn't show historical messages. I know that whenever the National Weather Service issues more than one message, all messages that are in effect are displayed in a continuous, scrolling motion, but only while in effect. This radio does not have a way for you to scroll through messages yourself

Radio has to be off, then press alarm button it will show you on the bottom of the screen. Picture of bell is alarm mode, music bar is music mode. Nothing on screen, alarm is off. To turn off weather alert, radio has to be off also. Just press band alert button, till "NOAA" is not on the bottom left of screen. Hope that helps.

not sure what you mean by smart weather alert. But you can set radio in Weather alert mode. Radio will remain in standby mode until there is a weather statement, watch or warning.

No. It does not give a warning tone. It alarms when the timer gets to zero. It has been reliable so we like it. But it is pretty simple and straight forward without any bells and whistles.

The NOAA alerts are not on automatically. You must activate them before they alert you.

Read the manual for the WR120: it allows you to delete alerts you do not want. I've set up mine so that it alerts only for thunderstorms, tornadoes, hurricanes and national emergencies.

Yes. On both counts there is a reminder beep and it can be lowered in volume or muted.

The triangular band button (far left top of radio) is switchable: AM-Ham-weather-FM. The only wayyou'll hear weather on AM is if The Weather Alert button is pushed in (for emergency alerts).
