WNG636 (sometimes referred to as Cisco All Hazards) is a NOAA Weather Radio station that serves Cisco and surrounding cities. It is programmed from the NWS Fort Worth office with its transmitter located in Cisco. It broadcasts weather and hazard information for the following Counties: Brown, Callahan, Comanche, Eastland, Erath, Shackelford, and Stephens.

Throughout early 2009, all NOAA Weather Radio Stations within the North Texas region (including WNG636) began airing a monthly 5 minute talk show titled "The Lightning Bolt" where listener-submitted questions related to weather are answered by meteorologists.[1]
