Hazard Notifier vs Elemental Weather

Hazard Notifier is a unique, highly customizable application, specifically developed to deliver information concerning potentially unsafe events in a simple yet straightforward way. With push notifications and distinctive sounds, Hazard Notifier sends the information you want to know directly to your phone, clearly and informatively. All you have to do is open the application and you can immediately watch and track developing hazards on a map in relation to your location. With weather radar and hazard icons, you will be able to see exactly what is going on and where. When using the application, you are completely free to adjust the range of the area in which you wish to receive notifications, as well as choose what kind of hazards you would like to be notified of. In addition, Hazard Notifier’s exclusive reporting service allows users to report events that have just begun to occur around them, which can help notify others about possibly unsafe events before they have even been formally declared. This application is not just limited to reporting weather. Hazard Notifier reports events involving: • Tornadoes • Severe Thunderstorms • High Winds • Hail • Lightning • Flooding • Heavy Rain • Snow • Freezing Rain • Ice • Dense Fog • Dust Storms • Fire • Hurricanes • Tropical Storms • Earthquakes • Tsunamis • Volcanoes • Debris Flow • Asteroids With Hazard Notifier, you will not have to spend as much time sifting through slews of disorganized information on the latest environmental events from news programs and web pages. Hazard Notifier will clearly display events in relation to where you are. If you find yourself wishing to stay informed of turbulent conditions, yet are unable to actively access the latest weather or news reports, Hazard Notifier will send you push notifications of potentially unsafe events in your area.

Elemental Weather is a cloud-based service and mobile application providing comprehensive weather data, including current conditions, extended forecasts, and historical weather data for web and mobile applications supporting active user communities. Available weather metrics include temperature, rainfall, wind speed (including gusts), snow, perceived temperature, humidity, and air pressure. Historical weather data is available at hourly and daily levels. Forecasts are available for hourly, daily, and 12-hour (day/night) periods. In addition to current, forecasted, and historical weather data, the Elemental Weather API provides hourly observations from the NOAA network of National Data Buoy Center (NDBC) buoys and Coastal Marine Automated Network (C-MAN) stations. All stations measure wind speed, direction, and gust; atmospheric pressure; and air temperature. In addition, all buoy stations, and some C- MAN stations, measure sea surface temperature and wave height and period. Conductivity and water current are measured at selected stations. Weather condition data is also available from offshore oil rigs and ships at sea participating in government data reporting programs. The Elemental Weather app also presents near real-time data provided by the US Geological Services (USGS) Groundwater and Streamflow Information Program. The program supports the collection and delivery of streamflow and water-level information from approximately 8,500 sites and water-level information from more than 1,700 additional sites. Our clients include marine fishery managers (at the federal, state, and local levels), nonprofit environmental and conservation agencies, universities, recreational anglers, outdoor enthusiasts.
