Public Information Statement (Winfield Weather Radio Transmitter Degraded)

The best I can tell, the only alternate channel for Winston County is the Cullman transmitter. For Walker County, I believe the Birmingham, Oneonta transmitters are your alternate choices. I believe Marion County is covered by the transmitter out of Florence

Looks like the Tupelo transmitter covers Lamar County, AL as well as many East MS counties.
