As usual, I was perusing my favorite blogs, and Modern Survival Blog had a post on the NOAA Weather Radio Channel List, which was cool. It's always a good idea to keep on top of what the weather is doing, especially if extreme weather tends to be an issue in your area.
Being that here in Canada we also experience weather, it struck me as a good idea to look up similar information. A weather radio should definitely be on my list of preparedness items to get. Anyway, here's a link for Canadians to check out the local weather channels.
According to the website, Environment Canada issues alert bulletins for the following weather hazards:
Blizzard
Blowing Snow
Dust Storm
Flash Freeze
Freezing Drizzle
Freezing Rain
Frost
High Heat and Humidity
Humidex
Hurricane
Rainfall
Severe Thunderstorm
Snowfall
Snow Squall
Storm Surge
Tornado
Tropical Storm
Tsunami
Weather
Wind
Wind Chill
Winter Storm
In our area, we have to be alert to Tsunamis, Winter Storms, Earthquakes and Volcanic Eruptions, at least in the Mother Nature's fury department.
