AccuWeather Global Weather Center, September 1, 2021 – AccuWeather today announced AccuWeather Alerts™ severe weather notifications, a new system to push severe weather alerts exclusively into the hands of T-Mobile customers. This advanced notification system is designed to revolutionize the communication and distribution of severe weather threats in the interest of public safety. This new, system complements official government warnings and goes further: providing Up to the Minute storm information, in plain language, from 24/7 meteorologists and localized conditions down to specific neighborhoods to help customers make the best safety decisions severe weather threatens.

The announcement follows a successful pilot test in three T-Mobile markets.

With this newly developed system, T-Mobile customers can received Up to the Minute alerts that read "Severe Weather Potential," "Severe Weather Threat," and "Dangerous Weather Imminent!" on their iOS or Android mobile phones for free. Integrated into AccuWeather's award-winning app, these alerts provide details on upcoming and developing severe weather events, including notifications for hurricanes, snow, tornadoes, flooding, hail, heatwaves, cold waves and other types of threatening weather.

“Every year, severe weather claims hundreds of thousands of lives and causes trillions of dollars in damage around the world,” said AccuWeather Founder and CEO Dr. Joel N. Myers. “Our expert meteorologists not only offer the most accurate forecasts, but they understand the importance of communicating the impact of severe weather effectively, so people can take appropriate action. As part of our mission to save lives, help keep families and property safe, AccuWeather Alerts can inform people to make the best weather-impacted decisions.”

Beginning August 31st, AccuWeather Alerts severe weather notifications will expand to T-Mobile customers in 20 markets prone to severe weather, including Atlanta, Boston, Greenville, SC, Houston, New York, Orlando, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C. and many more. T-Mobile customers in these locations who opt in to receive this exclusive offer must first download the free AccuWeather app.
