What's coming to NWSAlerts.net?

We've been heads-down building some big additions to NWSAlerts.net and wanted to give you an early look at what's on the way. These features are already in development and rolling out soon.


🗺

Alerts by State

A brand new /state page gives you a bird's-eye view of active alerts across every state at once. Each state card shows a live alert count that updates automatically every 30 seconds. Click any state and you land on a dedicated page with a full interactive map and alert sidebar — same tag detection (EMERGENCY, PDS, CONFIRMED, damage threats) you know from the main dashboard, now filtered down to just that state.

Alert History

Ever wondered how many Tornado Warnings hit Oklahoma in May 2013? Now you can find out. The new /history page lets you search NWS storm-based warnings all the way back to 2002, powered by the Iowa Environmental Mesonet VTEC archive. Filter by date range, state, event type, and even tag — including an Emergency-only filter that cross-references the IEM emergencies database going back to 1999. Click any result to see full event details and a direct link to the IEM event page.


About Page

We added an /about page covering what NWSAlerts.net is, how it works under the hood, and where the data comes from.


New Navigation

With all these new pages, the old row of buttons was getting cramped. We replaced it with a clean slide-out navigation menu — just tap the ☰ button in the top right. All pages are organized into Live, Tools, and Info sections so everything is easy to find.
