WXJ69 (sometimes referred to as San Juan All Hazards) is a NOAA Weather Radio station that serves the eastern Puerto Rico area.[1] It is programmed from the National Weather Service forecast office in San Juan, Puerto Rico (NWSFO San Juan), with its radio transmitter located in Aguas Buenas. All information (except for station ID) is broadcast in English and then in Spanish. Spanish names are often poorly pronounced by the English synthesized voice.

Municipalities covered

Rather than a standard "county" warning area as on the mainland, each of the municipalities of Puerto Rico has its own FIPS code.
