Why this exists

The official translation is optional. Your safety is not.

38%

of Spanish speakers correctly understand what a tornado watch means. Among English speakers: 66%. (NOAA research)

1 in 4

The government translates forecasts from about 1 in 4 weather offices, in 5 languages. It labels the service experimental. (GAO)

4 weeks

In April 2025 the government translation service shut down entirely. It came back only after public pressure. It can stop again without notice.

The warning your family gets should not depend on next year’s budget.

How it works

Every alert. Your language. Seconds.

01

The National Weather Service issues a warning

Tornado, flash flood, hurricane, extreme heat. The official warning is issued in English, for your county.

02

We translate the complete warning instantly

The full text, not a fill-in-the-blank template. What is happening, where, until when, and exactly what to do.

03

You get it, in your language, for your exact area

Matched to the official warning polygon, roughly 1.5 square miles of precision. If it is not about your area, we do not send it.

Every official alert in the US and Canada
Spanish and Chinese today. 13 languages planned.
County-precise: alerts follow the official warning polygon
