WXL70 (sometimes referred to as Charlotte All-Hazards) is a NOAA Weather Radio station that serves the Charlotte metropolitan area and surrounding cities. It is programmed from the National Weather Service forecast office at the Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport in Greer, South Carolina with its transmitter located in Spencer Mountain. It broadcasts weather and hazard information for Alexander, Anson, Cabarrus, Catawba, Cleveland, Gaston, Iredell, Lincoln, Mecklenburg, Montgomery, Richmond, Rowan, Stanly, and Union Counties in North Carolina; plus Cherokee, and York counties in South Carolina. Until mid-2012, WXL-70's audio could also be heard on WCCB digital channel 18.3 on audio feed 2, because Me-TV had taken over audio feed 1.
