Sewell hosts radar and recovery roundtable to discuss radar gap

From the West Alabama Newsroom–

Congresswoman Terri Sewell hosted a radar and recovery roundtable in Hale County.

Sewell brought together several agencies to discuss efforts to provide better weather coverage to the area.

According to the panel — an effort to lower weather radar beams — could improve existing radar coverage by 15-percent.

And together with our new LifeSaver Radar system — will help fill in the gap in radar coverage in west Alabama.

“We get neglected. And that’s unfortunate. And that’s why we have to bring in attention to the issue. Our lives matter just like everybody else. And we want to make sure we can get the same valuable service as every other county in the state,” said Hale county resident Marvin Wiggins.”
