Winter Weather Planners contain snow and ice forecast graphics, surface charts, and detailed summaries of upcoming significant winter weather events. WeatherOps forecasters assess the regional impacts of snow, ice, wind, and wind chill on a scale from Minimal to High. Significant events are based on WeatherOps winter weather criteria, which take into consideration local climatology and elevation.

Winter Planners are issued daily from Oct 1 - Apr 30

• US & Southern Canada ~0500 CT
• Europe ~0500 UTC

The WeatherOps team issues short-fuse, event-driven alerts and outlooks covering Tropical Weather, Winter Weather, Severe Storms and Excessive Rainfall as soon as they are forecasted or predicted to be a threat to your business. Alerts are color-coded to communicate severity quickly and easily.

WDT’s patented alerting technologies disseminate these alerts in real-time via HTML email and SMS.

WDT’s WeatherOps Meteorologists provide alerts for any given location, worldwide. These are the alert types included:

WDT’s automated systems and data streams provide real-time lightning proximity alerting including "all-clear" notifications for those locations where operations are sensitive to lightning risk. This system detects and distributes lightning alerts via email, SMS text, and push notification through the WeatherOps mobile app; in the WeatherOps Display (audible and visual). WDT utilizes the global Earth Networks Total Lightning Network (ENTLN) for all of our lightning services.

• Issued once a strike is detected within range of up to three selected proximity rings
• An all-clear will be issued when no lightning has been detected within the selected radius for a specified number of minutes (customizable by location)

Only receive an alert when one of your asset locations is within the polygon. WeatherOps automatically filters and sends National Weather Service Watch/Warnings & Advisories, specific to your asset, all in mere seconds. We deliver standard National Weather Service watches, warnings, and advisories for weather events such as tornado, winter storm, flood, wind, tropical and fire via email, the WeatherOps Display, and the WeatherOps mobile app.

Alert information includes:

• Time of issue
• Time of expiration
• Full NWS bulletin text

Our forecast is issued each weekday morning around 6:45 AM CT and highlights the 2-5, 6-10, and 11-15 day temperature anomaly and precipitation forecasts. 

Included in each report is a discussion of current and forecast weather trends along with additional informative forecast graphics and data, as well as forecast graphics for various international regions.

Forecast accuracy is crucial, and we keep track! View our forecast verification stats. 

Executive Summary

We’ve taken our threat matrix and compressed it so you can see all of your assets in one place simultaneously. At a glance, you can quickly identify assets that may require focus in the following days. The temporal resolution in this report is customizable just like the Dynamic Planners. 

Daily Threat Report

We help you by providing a Management by Exception solution. In this report, decision makers see only assets with a parameter “triggered” during the following ten days. Simply set your thresholds and only see which asset(s) will exceed these thresholds.

Our seasonal forecast is a look ahead at the next several months with discussion and imagery supporting our thoughts regarding temperature anomalies, HDD & CDD predictions, and hydro/drought outlooks. This report issues twice monthly on Wednesday evenings around 6 pm CT.

WeatherOps Commander allows company admins to customize certain weather parameter thresholds within the Daily Planner or Weather Check forecasts. The color-coded thresholds are based on the following general assumptions:  

• Acceptable working conditions show as clear or green
• Marginal working conditions or medium threat level show yellow
• Poor working conditions or high threat level show red

Customization of the parameter thresholds based on your specific operating conditions provides a quick glance at the forecast to reveal when parameters have exceeded a threshold. 

This forecast issues each Tuesday and highlights expected temperature and precipitation anomalies, HDD and CDD totals, with a detailed support discussion. Instead of site-specific forecasts, these rely on probability. Forecasts also outline events such as El Niño and La Niña and the projected sea surface temperatures associated with them.

Our lightning reporting tool offers a way for you to confirm weather conditions after a storm occurred to submit with a claim or organize operational repair crews. Input a location of interest, as well as the date and time period, and we’ll generate your report to visually show where lightning strikes occurred within a set radius of your location. Also included is a table providing lightning strike date/time, lat/lon, amps, exact distance from location and bearing.
