Whenever a hurricane is within 300 miles of land in the northern western hemisphere, the Hurricane Watch Net is operational on 14.325 USB MHz. The Hurricane Watch Net provides communication between the National Hurricane Center and the affected areas.

The Amateur Radio RACES service is operating on several frequencies. During the day it is best to monitor the "Hurricane Net" on 14325 kHz (USB). Health & Welfare traffic is heard on 14300 kHz with "outgoing" Health & Welfare messages on 14268 kHz. The above frequencies are best heard during the daylight hours or according to propagation conditions.
Night-time and early morning traffic can be heard on the following frequencies. 3930 kHz (Central Gulf Coast Hurricane Net), 3935 kHz (Hurricane Net-Emergency Traffic) and 3920 kHz (Health & Welfare Traffic). All these are in LSB (Lower Sideband) mode.
In addition, for RTTY weather updates from WLO at Mobile, Alabama can be monitored on 16997.5 kHz (daytime) and 8534 kHz or 6344 kHz (during the night and early morning hours). WLO carries the latest Hurricane Advisories from the National Hurricane Center in Florida.
Of course, there are other frequencies which you may hear WLO on also. USCG weather can also be heard on 4429 kHz, 8765 kHz, 13113 kHz and 17307 kHz (USB).

There may be other frequencies which may be on the air and in use by other agencies such as the American Red Cross, FEMA (The Federal Emergency Management Agency) or other government services such as the National Guard.
