Weather Alert notification in stream

Redbird, love this man. Is there a way I can turn off the count boxes for a category that isn’t active? Also in a future version can we get a switch to turn all states off… I cover just KY on my stream so it’s a pain turn other states off. Is there a way to save the configuration? Also any chance of adding winter weather advisories? Love this overlay man, thank you for all the work on it. Do you have a donation jar for it?

2.1 got released yesterday. And I did add that feature
 
With the Alerts, I think the system treats tornado warnings as brand new warnings when they are updated. So in instead of it saying that a tornado warning was issued, it could say that it was upgraded. Just food for thought. Thank you so much for all you have done!

Hey Redbird! I love the Warnverlay overlays. However, the pop-up alerts sometimes recycle warnings. Is there a way that you can add a script where it can refresh the pop-up alerts about every 30 minutes or so to prevent already issued alerts from recycling?

Thanks!

I found the github page for Warnverlay. How can I download it so it runs locally off of my machine instead of through browser setup on OBS?

I found a plugin that auto refreshes the alerts to a custom range.

Oh it’s because I’ve been updating the api script that’s why

Temporary, I found a plugin that refreshes pages automatically and I set it to refresh about every 2 minutes and 25 seconds. Seems to be limiting repeat warnings for now. When do you think the update will be done? I don't know anything about coding, otherwise I could have probably fixed it myself since I'm running Warnverlay as a local file on my computer. I don't use it for live streaming, I just use it to help me keep track of when new warnings are issued in real time.
 
The only downside to the refreshing plug-in I found is that I sometimes miss a warning because it will be in the middle of a refresh. But this is a small price to pay for not having to sit through warnings recycling and redisplaying. Hopefully, the next update to Warnverlay will address and eliminate this issue. Is anyone else getting repeat alerts after a lengthy period of time?
