It was a small handheld Crystal Controlled WeatherRadio that I had purchased at Radio Shack in 1991. The model number was 12-242 made by Realistic of course.
I called this guy up on the phone and told him he sounded great. I think he said his name was Tony. He told me he was getting a lot of flack from his superiors due to his enthusiastic manner of broadcasting.
AWESOME, Steve!!! I think I have most of Erin's advisories archived somewhere too. The guy who recorded this advisory really used some heavy emphasis a couple of times...lol. It's too bad NOAA advisories are automated now... it's just not the same.
I live in Clearwater FL now since July 2020 I was living in Bennington Vermont. At the time and I would have love to lived in central Florida and east central Florida at the time of Erin's landfall I loved through hurricane Gloria in Sept 1985 that made landfall in Connecticut but Rhode island was on eastern semicircle of the hurricane it was 100 mph hurricane at time of landfall in central coast of Connecticut. I lived through hurricane bob in Aug 19 1991 that made landfall in Rhode island
@@Blue_Bolt_Da_Wusky Wow! looks like you have a lot of time on your hands to have posted all of these model numbers of past radios. I have no idea what any of these look like. You should just post a video here on RUclips showing all of these weather radios. I'm sure a lot of people would love to see them.
I could not agree with you more! Even the NOAA Weather Radio was better. We had real live people speaking instead of the stupid robotic voices we hear today. The guy that was giving this broadcast was great.
What an amazing piece of Broadcasting history thanks for uploading this!
You are welcome Piggy.
I agree this is so amazing!!
I know. On tv it's more scary

That weather radio broadcaster is a happy guy. He loves his job!
I miss the 'old' NOAA Weather Radio with human broadcasters. Not the same since they started the automated broadcasts in 1998.

That’s a pretty scary place to be standing
That's beautiful Hollywood Beach and it's not scary at all.
Sweet video . Five Star's
Big thunderstorm clouds.
really I went through Katrina it was a fairly strong cat 3
Because if you remember it has to attribute to a certain number of deaths in order for that hurricane name to be retired.
