From Florence to Geraldine and everywhere in between... Thanks to everyone who helped during WAFF 48 Weather Week. We programmed over 500 weather radios. Wow! That’s 500 more people who are safer when severe weather strikes.

Did you miss our weather radio events? No worries... Stop by WAFF 48 during normal business hours. That's Monday-Friday 8am-5pm (excluding holidays.) We are more than happy to program your weather radio for FREE. (Pssst! We may still have tickets to an upcoming Huntsville Stars game. Ask our front desk receptionist for the hook-up.)

Stay in the know when you are on-the-go! Check out the WAFF 48 mobile app. Friend us on Facebook. Follow @waff48 on Twitter. Thank you for your support:)

On March 9, 2013 National Park Ranger Larry Beane will lead a paddle trip in the backcountry part of the preserve. This section of Little River is known for easy paddling with class I and II rapids. The all day trip is scheduled 10 am to 4 pm. The trip will include stops along the way to learn about safety and special resources in the park.

Paddlers will need to bring their own kayak/canoe, paddle, life preservers, food, water, hat and sunscreen. The water will probably be cold, and the weather may be cool too, so plan your clothing accordingly. A splash jacket and warm cloths may be needed. The park is planning on providing free shuttle for this event.

Call the National Park Service office at (256) 845-9605 or email Ranger Beane at Larry_Beane@nps.gov for more information or to RSVP. Although the program is free, RSVP is required. Time and meeting place will be given at that time.
