Does it work with my streaming software?

Each overlay is a web page with a transparent background, so it works anywhere that takes a browser source: OBS Studio and Streamlabs, among others. Nothing to install.

Where do the warnings come from?

The National Weather Service, as issued, filtered to the counties you pick. The ticker shows the NWS's warnings, never warnings of your own.

Do I need to code, or an API key?

No. No GitHub, no scripts, no keys. You pick your counties, copy a link and paste it.

We're building the free overlays first: the ticker, the name bar, the clock and the standby screens. There's no date yet. Start publishing now: the overlays point viewers to your page and show your forecasts, so everything you set up carries over.

Stream overlays · coming soon

Look like a 24/7 storm stream. No code.

A warning ticker for your counties, a name bar, a live clock and a starting-soon screen, each one link you paste into OBS. Warnings come from the NWS, the map is your latest published forecast, and every screen points viewers to your page.

How you set it up

About two minutes, once.

Step 1
Pick your counties and a theme
The ticker, the counts and the pop-ups only show warnings in the area you cover.
Step 2
Copy the links into OBS
Each graphic is one link. In OBS: Sources, Browser, paste. Type your Twitch channel once and the chat commands work.
Step 3
Go live and keep forecasting
New warnings slide in on their own. Publish a forecast update and the map on stream changes with it.
