WeatherCall

Agape of North Alabama is proud to offer this life-saving state of the art personal warning service to North Alabama.

Recent improvements in how the National Weather Service defines warning areas have resulted in significantly higher accuracy and smaller warned areas, compared to the decades-old county-wide warning method. http://www.nws.noaa.gov/sbwarnings

The WeatherCall® system continuously monitors the National Weather Service's NOAA weatherwire. Using computerized mapping (GIS) the system compares a subscriber's specific location to the location of the warning area. When a severe weather warning includes your location, you will receive a phone call from Meteorologist Brad Huffines, 24 hours a day. You can also receive the warning by email with a detailed map of the threat or by SMS text messaging.

During the tragic and epic storms of April 27th, 2011, the WeatherCall system delivered approximately 340,000 phone calls within minutes of issuance by the National Weather Service. Many people have credited WeatherCall as the only warning system still functioning and able to notify them on that day when sirens and weather radios were rendered inoperable by the storms.

Madison and Jackson Counties' combined 1,885 square miles are under a tornado warning issued on Jan 21, 2010 at 5:30pm. The true warning area is slightly more than 300 sq. miles, representing a 85% reduction in warned area. Only WeatherCall subscribers INSIDE the red box would receive the warning call.
