Detail & timing

Open any product to its complete text, version history, and impact-based hazard tags. Shear also projects each storm forward along its motion — so you see the towns in its path and a live countdown to arrival, updating as the cell moves.

See it

One console for every weather threat

Stop juggling tabs and apps. Radar, satellite fire detection, and live warnings on a single map — your complete weather picture in one view.

Radar

WSR-88D and TDWR plus the national mosaic — the sites you choose, on an interactive map with a reflectivity read-out under your cursor.

Satellite wildfire detection

GOES-based NGFS hot-spots with fire radiative power and detection time — you see ignitions as they are spotted from space, not hours later.

Warnings, motion & arrival times

Warning areas matched to your jurisdiction and drawn in the official NWS colors — with storm-motion vectors and live per-town arrival countdowns, so the threat and its timing are obvious.

Live alert stream

Every qualifying product the moment it is issued — searchable and scoped to the states you cover, with the area, headline, and instructions in one place.

Act on it

Warn the right people, on every channel

Build profiles by product, county, and forecast office — then route each to the contact groups and channels that should hear it. One alert, fanned out everywhere at once.
