"I would like to send a quick note to express my sincerest gratitude your service made to me on Friday, April 4. I live in Knoxville, Tennessee, and a major weather system was breaking out across all of Tennessee that day. I activated SKYWARN as Severe Thunderstorm and Tornado warnings were being issued locally. As the evening went on, I logged on to the Internet and watched my email for statements issued by the National Weather Service. As the situation here intensified, I found it difficult to relay NWS bulletins without deleting vital information. I was elated as I discovered that the NWS bulletins were being sent out over the Internet as quickly as they were over the airwaves into my SAME Weatheradio. I could verify the bulletin then read it verbatim off my email to the HAM operators and Scanner monitors listening across East Tennessee. I was also able to read warnings issued for outlying areas not programmed into my Weatheradio. Your service was a tremendous help to us last night, and I will gladly continue to utilize your service in the hopes that it may be able to help save lives during another severe weather outbreak."
