Wakefield SKYWARN Local Ham Clubs The Wakefield SKYWARN Amateur Radio Support Team exists to help facilitate communication between Trained SKYWARN Spotters in the amateur radio community and the National Weather Service Forecast Office in Wakefield, Virginia.
The efficient collection of severe weather reports via amateur radio frees critical NWS staff from answering phones and allows them to focus on assessing weather scenarios and issuing appropriate warnings while still receiving necessary reports from Spotters in the field.
The Wakefield SKYWARN Amateur Radio Support Team exists to maintain and staff the amateur radio station at the National Weather Service Forecast Office, call sign WX4AKQ. The Team also continually works to grow and support a number of Trained Skywarn Net Control Stations who can run local subnets remotely and Trained Responders who can quickly and effectively operate WX4AKQ inside the Forecast Office.
