Net Status Color Codes

Last Updated on Saturday, 18 May 2013 Written by K0DJR

The Net Status Color Code is determined automatically by a program that is monitoring the National Weather Service's RSS feeds and the Hazardous Weather Outlook. 

THE NET STATUS COLOR INDICATOR IS DOWN. WE ARE WORKING TO GET THE PROPER STATUS CODE TO DISPLAY. No matter what the Net Status graphic is indicating, the information gathered and presented here may NOT be accurate. You MUST use your own judgement to determine your best course of action in any given circumstance!

Metro Skywarn Spotters Can Register And Participate Here

Print
Last Updated on Sunday, 17 June 2012 Written by N0KBD
You may now access your Metro Skywarn profile at Metro Skywarn home page. You must be a MSW spotter and have a MSW spotter ID card with a 3 or 4 digit number. Sky Watchers, those with IDs that start with a County name and the general public are not eligible for access. Since we have around 1200 active MSW members, it's unlikely we will open the webpage to everyone. But the general public can read most everything here.
 
Your account has already been activated if you have been a spotter for a while. If you have just trained, there will likely be a week or so delay before your data gets entered.
 
To access your account, you must first This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. with a proposed temporary password (6 characters or more). We will enter it for you. Then you log in with your username as your call or your SWID number (if you don't have a ham call). Then put in your temporary password. Once you are logged in you can correct your information and change your password.
 
Please fill in your profile details. No contact information will ever be shared with anyone other than MSW Instructors, Board members, Net Control Operators, and NWS staff. They may contact you regarding severe weather in your area. If you choose to have a public profile, only registered spotters will see your name call, and MSW ID number. (Currently the public profile is not working and so not available.) Your email, address and phone numbers will never be shown. Spotters will see a link to send you an email via a web form. Your email will only be known if your reply to an email sent by that form.
 
We welcome you to our online community and trust that together we will protect the community and have some fun doing so.

Kind Regards,

Dave Johnson, N0KBD
Metro Skywarn Board Chair

Last Updated on Monday, 18 June 2012 Written by N0KBD

Do you have a good photo of severe weather? Want to see it in the website header? Registered spotters can submit a photo, or better yet, write an article telling the story behind the picture and attach a photo. Be sure you are the owner of the photo for copyright purposes.  Your photo and story will be reviewed and inserted in the header if approved. All photos and stories will be considered! See all the pictures and the stories behind it here!

For those of you who'd like to look their finest in Skywarn wear and support Metro Skywarn, I spent the day Sunday updating the choices of merchandise at our vendor Cafepress.com. You'll find a wide selection of shirts, hats, bags, and other items in various design configurations for all ages and sizes.

I will consider some special requests if you have a configuration in mind that you don't see already there. Contact me here.

Welcome!

Welcome to the new Metro Skywarn Home Page! Gradually we are transferring over the old black background pages and updating them. You will find all the same content that has been around for years. There are a few broken links that will take some time to update. Please contact the webmaster to let us know.

The new page is powered by a content management application called Joomla. This will give us much more functionality for the future. You are now able to update your address and call sign right on this website! You can also enable your own public profile leaving your private information just that private to all but those who need to know. You are able to actively participate in our new forum where you can post requests to link up with other spotters, comment to the board on past events, discuss weather with your fellow spotter or anything else weather or Skywarn related. You can submit your own links, photos and articles as well!

Many other features are possible. But we need a lot of help to get the new site up and running. Any volunteers are welcome. Web site construction and Joomla experience is preferred.
