[RON DOT'O SR.]

Are those radios still available @ Radio Shack?  What is the model number?

  But the weather radios are cheep.  I have seen them as low as $15 at flea
  markets.  I got my super-dyna-whopping model at Radio Shack for $35 where I
  can program my county in and it only responds to that one.  What's more
  important, lottery tickets, cigarettes and a six pack, or a radio that could
  possibly save your life?  It all comes down to choices.  If I found myself
  in the unfortunate position of living in a mobile home, I'd have a NOAA
  radio in EVERY room!

  cell phones on hand!

  That's a great idea.  Or, you could use both NOAA radios augmented by cell
  phones augmented by broadcast stations.
