Often, these bulletins reach end users at the same time or BEFORE the Weather Radio goes off, unlike other commercial internet services which have such a large customer base that their own bulletins end up SO delayed that they've been noted to be some 20 minutes behind! The purpose of this Facebook site is to be an additional method of distribution of news and information regarding the AC-EMWIN Project, as well as to offer a platform for discussion of anything EMWIN- or especially AC-EMWIN-related. Currently, our text bulletins can be delivered in their entire long form, or in short, abbreviated form to email, FAX, pager, cellphone, PDA, listgroups, and web pages. But bulletins available to pager/cellphone are limited to severe weather-related bulletins only due to the sheer number of bulletins that can end up being sent out when severe weather comes.
