S.A.M.E.
- Is a feature in MIDLAND Weather Radios
that allows you to program in your county code or
counties codes. This will eliminate any
Alerts that are not within your programmed
Specific Area. For example, if you only
want to be informed for alerts within your county
just program in your county code. But, if
you want to be informed about counties that are
North, South, East and West of you, you can do
so.

A WARNING is an
event that alone poses a significant threat to public
safety and/or property, probability of occurrence and
location is high, and the onset time is relatively short.
A WATCH meets the classification of a warning, but
either the onset time, probability of occurrence, or
location is uncertain.
An EMERGENCY is an event that, by itself, would
not kill or injure or do property damage, but indirectly
may cause other things to happen that result in a hazard.
For example, a major power or telephone loss in a large
city alone is not a direct hazard, but disruption to
other critical services could create a variety of
conditions that could directly threaten public safety.
A STATEMENT is a message containing follow up
information to a warning, watch, or emergency.
