weather.gov URL changes that may impact you

As part of our continued effort to modernize weather.gov, the National Weather Service (NWS) is upgrading our point forecast, zone forecast, and product pages. Once these changes go live on April 4, all existing bookmarks to forecast.weather.gov will change. Links to a forecast page will display an error message that includes a URL to the new location. You will need to update your bookmarks to continue to access our forecasts quickly after the upgrade. After April 4, the new URL can also be found by searching for your location from forecast.weather.gov or www.weather.gov. These changes will not impact office pages located at www.weather.gov

The primary focus of the upgrade is to make the forecast pages more reliable during weather events, but there are some new benefits of new forecast pages that include:

Addition of 7-day hourly forecast information to the point forecast page
A new mobile-friendly landing and graphical/tabular forecast page
Low-bandwidth optimization for all pages, on a partial roll-out at launch
Option to automatically detect your location on a mobile device
A new widget mode that allows you to customize the information on the point forecast

We look forward to providing you with useful and timely information using our improved connectivity and new design.
