Weather Radar/NWS warnings

DanC405 — Tue, 26 Mar 2024 20:50:31 GMT

I live in a Tornado-prone area, and would like to be able to see weather radar and/or NWS weather warnings on my hub... I have one in the storm cellar, and it works great; it is nice to have a backup when the tornado is sudden, and we don't have time to grab everything... So options like casting from a laptop/desktop are not actually viable...

Hi @DanC405

It isn't a feature available. It would be super convenient for the severe weather alerts to be on the Nest Hub but for some reason Google hasn't made that an option.

Feedback via Hub is always suggested! Just tell your device to "share feedback" and record the message.

Thanks for the completely unhelpful answer... I understand its not a feature, I was hoping for a work around.

Gotcha and hopefully another community member will have some suggestions.

I do know that others have brought this up in the past and don't believe they ever posted any workarounds.

I would also recommend that this function be added. Many communities are removing their existing siren systems. This could save many lives.
