Weather Call

Introducing News Channel 3 WeatherCall – a new service that delivers precision severe storm warnings to your telephone, 24 hours a day.

Many counties in the News Channel 3 viewing area are several hundred square miles. Dangerous storms are often less than 100 square miles. In the past, severe weather warnings were issued for entire counties creating uncertainty as to exactly where the threat really is.

The National Weather Service now uses a new and much more precise method to define a warning area called STORM-BASED WARNINGS that reduces the size of a warning area by an average of 75%.

WeatherCall combines this new method to determine a warning area with robust emergency telephone notification.

Using computerized mapping, WeatherCall matches the danger area defined by the National Weather Service with your exact street address. If your address is within the danger area of the weather warning, Chief Meteorologist, Tim Simpson will deliver the warning message to the phone numbers you register, and also send you an email if you provide one.

Important things to know about WeatherCall before you sign up:

The News Channel 3 WeatherCall service is a very precise storm warning service, which costs only $9.95 per year.

When you register, your home or business will be assigned a latitude/longitude value which is stored in the WeatherCall computers, along with your telephone numbers and email addresses (if you have them).
