TemporALERT!

View and Receive Alerts Time in Transit in Your Area (Piedmont)

Temporalert, an ARPA Piedmont service developed by CSP - Innovation in the ICTs, allows you to view the media thunderstorms on the map and strong intensity in transit in your area.

The application is experimental and only the areas of the Piedmont Region, Liguria and Valle d'Aosta are currently covered, plus some provinces of Lombardy (CO, CR, LC, Lo, Mi, PV, Va) and of Emilia Romagna (PC).

The service is based on the spinding observations and subsequent Nowcasting elaborations by Arpa Piemonte.

Although the process is made by reason of the state of the art and the best technologies available, intrinsic uncertainty factors remain in temporal phenomena.

Functionality:

[•] Identification of medium or strong storm events

[•] Animation of the past, present and future situation (from 1 hour in the past to 1 hour in the future)

[•] * Receive notifications * on the incoming or transit events in the selected area

[•] Favorite location management

[•] High precision data from radar (maximum resolution 500 meters)

[•] high data update frequency (5 minutes)

[•] Possibility to select the width of the area in the surroundings of your point of interest (5km, 10km, 20km)

[•] Identification of the current position

*Note*: the radar data allow you to locate thunderstorms with a precision of 500m, within the ray set in their areas of interest (5, 10 or 20 km)

*=== more frequent questions ===*

[•] Outside it rains/snow and the app gives no event reported or expected

[•] There is a current storm and the app does not notify events

[•] Why is the forecast at 48/36 hours? Is it possible to have alarms instead of an hour of minimum 3-5 hours?

[•] Is it possible to have the alarms of events relating to the actual position instead of pre -selected?

[•] Is it possible to increase the radius of warnings for strong thunderstorms over 20 kilometers?

[•] When will there be the version for iOS and Windows?

[•] Can also notify and also report the strong winds?

[•] Is it predictable in the near future that the app can cover all of Italy?
