Natural Hazard Alerts

Weather threats sent to your inbox

When severe weather strikes, time is critical. Identifying a threat quickly allows risk managers and facility leaders to take action to prevent catastrophe. Warning employees, fortifying property, or even leading evacuations could prevent millions of dollars in damage and worker injuries or fatalities.

As climate change continues, companies are dealing with more extreme weather like heavy rains, floods, snow, ice, tropical storms, cold and other natural hazards. Monitoring those weather events at locations around the world is a serious challenge, requiring manual effort by company leaders. They must take valuable time scrolling through news feeds and checking weather sites hoping to piece together an accurate portrayal of their threats on any given day.

We can provide automatic weather alerts directly to your inbox. The alerts feature:

  • Description of weather threat
  • Areas/regions affected
  • Company location(s) in affected areas
  • When a weather event should begin and expire

  • Explanation of potential impact
