1. You can choose a county or state within the US (or the entire US) and it will display a list of all of the current weather alerts for that area on the widget.
2. I created this because I wanted a tablet on the wall in my kitchen to display weather alerts on the screen, and for all the plethora of weather apps out there, I couldn't find one that showed anything more than a (! ) icon on their widgets for alerts, and you had to click through to find out what they were.
3. This is an Android home screen widget to display current weather alerts from the US National Weather Service.
4. So this one displays a list of the current alerts right on the widget, and that is the only purpose of the widget.
5. This widget is not endorsed by or affiliated with the National Weather Service (NWS).
6. There is an accompanying app which can be used to configure what area you want and shows the raw feed data if you're really curious (though that part was mostly there for debugging, and might go away one of these days now that it all works).
7. If there's more than fits, the list scrolls, and you can tap on an alert to open the full text of the alert.
8. It does not currently do audible alerts (or any alerts), but that's probably coming soon.
9. Some of them would put the alerts into the notification bar, but that wasn't much better.
10. This application is open source.
11. Use of the NWS logo indicates that unaltered data/product has been obtained from NWS.
