City wants to buy weather radios for those without
Keith Stammer, Joplin-Jasper County emergency management director, on Thursday checks out the weather radio in his office at the Dr. Donald E. Clark Public Safety and Justice Center. The city is proposing supplying weather radios to all households in town that do not have one.
Phil Jones had been working on a construction project outside his house all day on May 22 and was unaware that a tornado watch had been issued. Once he was inside, though, his weather radio went off, and he learned that a warning had been issued.
