The Emergency Managers Weather Information Network -- EMWIN -- is a service that allows users to obtain weather forecasts, warnings, and other information directly from the National Weather Service (NWS) in almost real time. EMWIN is intended to be used primarily by emergency managers and public safety officials who need timely weather information to make critical decisions.
Emergency Managers Weather Information Network (EMWIN) offers an economical way to receive all products available on the NWWS, plus graphical forecasts and select satellite data. Compared to the NWWS, typically, an additional broadcast delay of 5 to 20 seconds can be expected for watches and warnings, as compared to the NWWS delay. The EMWIN system is monitored on 24 hours per day, 7 days a week, and has an estimated availability of at least 99%. EMWIN systems are available from many private industry suppliers. The service itself is free.
