Emergency management agencies in Kewaunee and Door counties will be able to prepare for severe weather while the National Weather Service radar is being rebuilt. The NOAA weather dish at Green Bay Austin Straubel International Airport will be offline from August 3rd through around August 15th. Kewaunee County Emergency Management Director Tracy Nollenberg says back up systems will still allow the weather service to notify the public of impending severe weather.
Nollenberg also says the radar rebuild won't impact NOAA weather radio broadcasts and will continue to alert people of weather advisories, watches and warnings.
