Many thanks to SWLing Post<\/em> contributor, Richard Langley, who notes that\u00a0WWV & WWVH marine storm warning announcements continue despite a recent announcement<\/a> that they would end.<\/p>\n

Richard has been monitoring WWV\/WWVH broadcasts and shared the following note earlier this month:<\/p>\n

The weather broadcasts (storm information) were still there at 8, 9, and 10 minutes past 0:00 UTC on 1 November on WWV as monitored here in NB. Haven’t had a chance to check them since. Are they actually gone? If so, when were the last ones broadcast. The warning at the 4-minute mark hadn’t been heard for days. I’m wondering if the decision to terminate the broadcasts was reversed.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yesterday, Richard added the following:<\/p>\n

[…]And still there on WWV (and presumably WWVH) on 16 November at 03:08 UTC on 10 MHz. So I guess this conclusively means that the proposal to cancel the broadcasts has been rescinded at least for the time being.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Thanks for sharing this, Richard.<\/p>\n

Your observation prompted me to check the\u00a0NOAA Marine Forecast page.<\/a>\u00a0I discovered that it has been updated it since the notice to stop marine forecasts was first announced last month.<\/p>\n

Before, it stated\u00a0that the “end of the high seas warnings [is] scheduled for October 31, 2017<\/strong>.”<\/em> Either NOAA made the decision to end the the forecasts in 2017 and never followed through, else the individual who posted the announcement mistakenly noted 2017 instead of 2018.<\/p>\n

NOAA does not note edit dates on this page, so there’s no way of knowing when the page was updated. Regardless, there is no longer a firm termination date mentioned on the page. Now the National Weather Service simply states:<\/p>\n

“the NWS is considering a proposal to discontinue this service.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So I believe, Richard, you are correct: the NWS has at least temporarily rescinded cancellation of the service.<\/p>\n

Thanks for following this development, Richard!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
