I am aware that some folks prefer not receiving frequent weather messages outside of the NC WV SKYWARN list. However, these alerts are marked as URGENT by the NWS Pittsburgh and they do concern everyone who lives or works in these areas. Therefore I am passing this Urgent Weather Message along to all.
