Folks,

There is potential for severe weather this evening in Monongalia, Marion
and Preston Counties. As a result, the Pittsburgh National Weather Service
has asked us to activate the Monongalia ARES SKYWARN Net. We will comply
with the NWS request and activate the SKYWARN Net on W8MWA repeater
(145.430 MHz, -600 offset, 103.5 P.L.)

Currently, except for some strong winds, the weather is calm here. However,
strong storms have developed over Ohio and have reached the West Virginia
Panhandle at this hour.Therefore, we will activate the SKYWARN Net at 1900
EDT (7 PM) this evening, Sunday, May 14, 2024.

*** Please monitor the W8MWA repeater. Remember the NWS needs our reports
and weather information as their RADAR can not reach Morgantown, Fairmont,
etc

*** And remember that you do not need to be a trained weather observer to
participate. Input from all stations will be welcomed and valued.

73,

Jeff, WB1AAL
