Severe Weather Alerts & Radar Right In Home Assistant
So on today's video, we are looking at using Home Assistant to show severe weather alerts and weather radar right in your dashboard. We will look at alternative weather forecast sources for your dashboard, adding a moving weather radar image as a camera, and setting up weather alerts.
The cool thing about having this data in Home Assistant is you can send alerts and radar images to your phone via the notify service or have it read out alerts via text-to-speech.
Give it a shot and be ready for the next big storm!!
