Channel numbers, e.g. (WX1, WX2) etc. have no special significance but are <strong>of</strong>ten designated this way in<br />

consumer equipment. Other channel numbering schemes are also prevalent.<br />

The NOAA Weather Radio network provides voice broadcasts <strong>of</strong> local and coastal marine forecasts on a<br />

continuous cycle. The forecasts are produced by local National Weather Service Forecast Offices.<br />

Coastal stations also broadcast predicted tides and real time observations from buoys and coastal<br />

meteorological stations operated by NOAA's National Data Buoy Center. Based on user demand, and<br />

where feasible, Offshore and Open Lake forecasts are broadcast as well.<br />

The NOAA Weather Radio network provides near continuous coverage <strong>of</strong> the coastal U.S, Great Lakes,<br />

Hawaii, and populated Alaska coastline. Typical coverage is 25 nautical miles <strong>of</strong>fshore, but may extend<br />

much further in certain areas.
