Find your county and record you S.A.M.E. # ( the S.A.M.E. county code ) that is to the right of your county and for any other countys you are interested. Then you just got to program it to your weather radio. Sorry I cant help you do that but my weather radio is not the same as your's.<BR/><BR/>Justin in Lafayette.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1997582511588511868.post-21772845610760675412008-06-03T09:17:00.000-04:002008-06-03T09:17:00.000-04:00Will do!Justin in Lafayette.Will do!<BR/><BR/>Justin in Lafayette.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1997582511588511868.post-49796229245204947922008-06-03T09:11:00.000-04:002008-06-03T09:11:00.000-04:00Mary Anne take care, My heart goes out to all that...Mary Anne take care, My heart goes out to all that are still trying to re-build from the winter floods.<BR/><BR/>I do not live in an area that is at high risk for flooding, other than my basement, and thats nothing compaired to folks that have lost everything, including their pets! <BR/><BR/>I help out with no kill shelters and the Exotic Animal Sanctuary, where pet birds, rabbits, dogs and cats, animals of all kinds had to surrended by owner due to the fact their owners had to relocate and were not able to take their pets with them, Hope this will not be a replay of that event.
