  • Forecast Based Risk - In the near-term time range (i.e., out to two weeks forward), the NOAA, GFS and ECMWF ensembles (i.e., forecast model runs) are used to augment the peril and risk probabilities. These forecasts provide a forward view of up to 15-days forward.
  • Climatology Based Risk - This longer probability view (i.e., days 15-28) is based on Weather Source climatology models where Weather Source has used its deep database of extreme weather and perils to generate climatology probability and risk information for extreme weather events and perils.

Alerting Service for Extreme Weather & Perils (DWAS): The Dynamic Weather Alerting Service (DWAS) allows users the ability to configure and receive alerts for any weather parameter or severe weather alerts issued by various government agencies such as the U.S. National Weather Service and Canadian Ready Alerts.
