StormSiren is a personal severe weather monitoring
tool that communicates information from National
Weather Service issued bulletins on potential and
imminent hazardous weather. When such bulletins
are detected, the program sends a concise summary
of the alert to one or more devices, including
pagers, SMS-capable wireless phones, or e-mail
accounts. The summaries are designed to fit within
a 160 character display and contain the type of
hazard, the affected counties and cities defined
by the user, and the issue and expiration times of
the bulletin.
