Critical data should
be phoned into the Blacksburg NWS office at 800-221-2856 or
540-552-0084.
If the SKYWARN Amateur Radio Station is active at the Blacksburg
office, the information can be passed by voice. For data less
critical, the following form can be used to pass information to
the NWS office. When you
click on the “Submit” button at the bottom of the form it is
emailed
directly to the NWS office at Blacksburg and this e-mail is checked frequently
during times of adverse weather. These forms can also be used for
“After Storm” totals that can be helpful to the NWS. Note: When you send a
form, please call and let them know that did so.
By using these forms,
you help to free the telephone up at the Blacksburg office and the
information comes to them as text so they don’t have to record the
information by hand over the phone.
