NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — In mid-May, the National Weather Service in Nashville underwent maintenance that caused weather radios to stop receiving alerts for a few days.

Now, the National Weather Service office in Huntsville, Alabama, is going through the same maintenance, which will impact some counties in the News 2 viewing area.

The National Weather Service in Huntsville covers northern Alabama and three counties in southern Middle Tennessee: Lincoln, Franklin, and Moore.

However, NOAA weather radios in the area won't receive alerts from Tuesday, June 3 to Thursday, June 5. According to NWS Huntsville, nothing else will be impacted by the maintenance.

During the three-day span, six radio transmitters will be down, including one in Winchester that covers three counties in Tennessee.

Fortunately, the News 2 Weather Authority team is not forecasting any significant severe weather threats while the radios are down. To be safe, NWS Huntsville has advised residents to have multiple ways to receive alerts.

The WKRN Weather Authority app is one way you can get those lifesaving warnings from the National Weather Service.
