🔍 Key Concepts

• Marine radio weather broadcasts for coastal waters • The role of the National Weather Service (NWS) vs. the agency that actually broadcasts over VHF-FM for mariners • Which U.S. agency routinely issues marine safety information and warnings on the radio

💭 Think About

• Which federal agency routinely communicates directly with vessels on VHF-FM for safety, distress, and weather information? • Think about who runs the regular "weather and navigational warnings" segments you hear on marine channels, especially channel 16/22A handoffs. • Which of the listed choices is clearly NOT focused on ocean weather or direct communication with mariners?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option is a maritime safety and response agency with its own radio network. • Eliminate agencies that mainly deal with mapping/intelligence or rivers and land hydrology, not routine coastal marine broadcasts. • Recall that the NWS creates the forecasts, but another agency often relays them in plain language over marine radio.
