Breaking news and weather alerts in english?

GuestPoster114896Guest01 June 2017 21:58:46

Does anyone know of any emergency news/weather radio stations in english on the island? Feeling kinda lost when it comes to weather updates, although I did sign up for alerts from the NWS San Juan on twitter, I'd prefer to have plain old fashioned radio access over internet, or at least both.

Thanks!

According to the first link, looks like I'm going to have to get a VHF capable radio. And the Tune In link, says no steam available.

Thanks for the info.

I downloaded the Weather Underground apps (regular and Storm) which seem pretty good. I'd just like to hear radio updates for weather as well as local breaking or emergency news, if possible. The one english-speaking station I came across so far seems to be religious so it's not helpful.

Thanks again in advance for any suggestions.
