NOAA - Emergency Managers Weather Information Network - NWS
Entry ID: NOAA_NWS_EMWIN

[ Update this Record ]

Summary

Abstract: As an integral part of its mission, the National Weather Service (NWS)
recognizes the need to provide the emergency management community with access
to a set of NWS warnings, watches, forecasts, and other products at no
recurring cost. Toward that end, the Emergency Managers Weather Information
Network (EMWIN) system was developed. In partnership with the Federal Emergency
...
