KHA99 (sometimes referred to as Muenster All Hazards) is a NOAA Weather Radio station that serves Gainesville and surrounding cities near the Red River including the western half of the Sherman-Denison Metro Area. It is programmed from the NWS Fort Worth office with its transmitter located in Muenster. It broadcasts weather and hazard information for Cooke, Denton, Grayson, Montague, and Wise counties in Texas as well as Carter, Jefferson, and Love counties in Oklahoma.

Throughout early 2009, all NOAA Weather Radio Stations within the North Texas region (including KHA99) began airing a monthly 5 minute talk show titled "The Lightning Bolt" where listener-submitted questions related to weather are answered by meteorologists.[2]
