SKYWARN Recognition Day was started in 1999 in cooperation with the ARRL to commemorate the partnership of the NWS with amateur radio operators in their vital role of relaying critical reports to the National Weather Service.

For 2025 SKYWARN Recognition Day was cancelled nationally due in part to the government shutdown impairing the NWS from have time and resources to coordinate the event for this year, however, local NWS offices are encouraged to have a localized participation if possible.
