The NWS Greenville-Spartanburg, SC office broadcasts continuous weather information and short-fused warnings on NINE transmitters serving northeast Georgia, Upstate South Carolina, and western North Carolina.
NOAA Weather Radio broadcasts can usually be heard within a 40 mile radius of the antenna site, sometimes more. The effective range depends on many factors, particularly the height of the broadcasting antenna, terrain, quality of the receiver, and type of receiving antenna. The maps below shows transmitter locations in our County Warning Area (CWA), as well as transmitters close to our CWA.
