Weather Alert notification in stream

[Geae_Liska]

Good Day folks,

I've recently started a weather channel on youtube and I use OBS for my streams. I wanted to have a feature in my stream that when a new severe thunderstorm warning or a tornado warning is issued from anywhere in the US that an alert pops up in my stream. I don't know how I can get this to work as I have seen it done in other weather enthusiasts channels I'm just not good at coding.

I know the National Weather Service issues alerts either by an RSS feed or through ATOM. These alerts don't always show up on the top of the feed so I don't know if there is way that if an new alert is sent through the feed that a specific search parameter would see the title having "Tornado Warning" or "Severe Thunderstorm Warning" and could create a sound alert and a popup on my stream. Of course this alert would also need to have the county the alert is issued in with the state abbreviation.

If there is anyone willing to help I would highly appreciate it. I've searched many plugins and don't seem to find anything in regards to this.

I am attempting to do the same thing. I have started using Titler Live 5 Present. It's very finicky and expensive. Surely there is a better way to do this!

Unless you want to manually trigger the alerts, every single forecast API I could find does cost a lot.

Ok, I want to manually trigger the alerts. What does it look like and how do I do it?

I'm using Titler Live as well but it's a pain for alerts. I would be very interested in a plugin for obs that would allow us to select the counties we would like to receive alerts for and the alert type. Then have the alert dumped into a text file and scroll. it would work very similarly to the EAS scroll you see on TV. Someone is missing a great opportunity. Heck, I would pay nicely for such a plugin!

there is some way for you, however it is so simple that need to be tested:

try to use TXT from File - need to be conected with RSS FEED source file - and after use Keywords to create the alert with downstream keyer obs. finally when STORM will be shown at the TXT file you will be able to create alert image and sound to inform your followers.

We also looking forward for plugin but nowdays it is only solution for LIVE RSS FEED

Hey Everyone,

I have really been wanting to find the lower thirds that you see other weather streamers use but I dont know if those were made by there team or if they are avalible online or if you have to pay for them. I like the way they display new warnings and watches cause I have been wanting to figure this out too. I was researching online to see if I could find a way too. I stubled upon this forum hoping to find some help. Examples would be like Ryan Hall Y'all.

Hope Everyone has a great day.

I built a weather display widget but using predictions to trigger alerts is a bit out of my hand, best i can do is send an alert if wind speed is higher than 65-85 mph i could trigger an alert for an EF0 tornado but that's only when openweather catches that informations https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/live-weather-forecast-browser-source.1774/ | https://obscountdown.com/obs-studio-live-weather-forecast
