Re: [IRCA] TIS Stations in Washington

[Guy Atkins <dx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Colin,

The City of Puyallup also operates a TIS station on 1580 kHz. This one is
kind of interesting, with mentions that Mt. Rainier volcanic lahar (mud
flow) warnings and evacuation instructions would be broadcast on the
frequency if needed.

I hope it never is  :^)
