If their transmitters fail, ANYWHERE! :-)

And when was the last time one failed and caused a problem?


Plus if their weather transmitters fail, how are you going to retransmit
that which isn't there.

The do what our club does when the SKYWARN net is active...

Read the announcement from the website.

The announcement is published on NWS's website...Print it off and READ it
on the repeater. THAT way you comply with the letter AND the spirit of the
law, plus you don't create enemies in the local repeater crowd for all the
unannounced "alerts" that would ignore what ever was already going on the
repeater.
