New locations added also have Safety Net alerts automatically turned on. • Users can now choose whether to receive alerts from each separate location. • When a user clicks an alert notification, they are now taken to the map page showing the last viewed data product for that alert location. • A new 7-day forecast includes a written forecast for both day and night time.
