Introducing Perry Weather Forecasts: A Proactive Way to Stay Ahead of the Weather

Published on March 24, 2025 | Written by Saba Arif | Product Updates

In this article:

Weather moves fast. Now, your forecasts do too.

For years, Perry Weather has delivered 24/7 on-demand meteorologist support, helping customers like you make critical weather-driven decisions when it matters most. But until now, forecasts were mostly reactive—you either had to request them or wait for an NWS alert. 

That changes today.

Introducing Perry Weather Forecasts—a proactive feature that gives you tailored, location-specific weather forecasts before severe weather strikes, crafted by real meteorologists who know your industry inside out.

Let’s dive into what this means for you.

What are Perry Weather Forecasts?

Think of Perry Weather Forecasts as your personalized, proactive warning system that outlines what’s coming, when to expect it, and what actions to take – all without having to request them. 

These actionable weather alerts help you plan and respond before severe weather disrupts operations, supplementing broader NWS alerts with hyperlocal and industry-specific context. 

Perry Weather Forecasts come straight from our team of expert meteorologists (yes, real humans, not AI!). When severe weather arises, we’ll automatically send you a proactive forecast, right alongside NWS alerts and your automated policy alerts.

How Perry Weather Forecasts Work

Our meteorologists are constantly analyzing real-time weather patterns across the U.S., keeping an eye out for severe weather conditions that could impact your location. 

When we detect any potential weather risk in your area, we immediately send you a detailed, proactive forecast right to your phone and email.

Each forecast clearly tells you:
✅ What’s coming: A detailed breakdown of expected weather conditions (high winds, lightning, extreme heat etc.).
✅ When to expect it: A timeline of when severe weather will hit your area, so you can prepare in advance.
✅ Weather impact: Color-coded alerts to quickly show the severity and type of weather impact.
✅ What actions to take: Industry-specific recommended key actions to help you make smarter, more informed decisions.

No more scrambling at the last minute—just clear, actionable forecasts that help you plan ahead.

From Reactive to Proactive: What This Means for You

Being proactive with weather forecasts means fewer surprises, easier planning, and improved safety. Here’s what this looks like in practice:

1. More Time to Prepare

Instead of reacting to incoming storms, you’ll know what’s coming well in advance. That means more time to adjust schedules, communicate with your team, and make informed decisions.

Example: A golf course expecting high winds and heavy rain can adjust tee times early and send out warnings, avoiding last-minute disruptions.

2. Tailored Insights from Real Meteorologists

Different industries, different weather risks. We get that.

 A school district, construction site, and sports facility all face unique weather challenges. Our expert meteorologists, like Ian Allen, understand the nuances of your operations and craft precise alerts specific to your industry. 

Ian does much more than just read radar maps; he’s actively tracking weather for your region and considering how it will impact your operations.

3. More Accurate, More Relevant Alerts

NWS alerts cover huge areas, making them valuable for broad awareness, but Perry Weather Forecasts add another layer of specificity and actionable insights.

If you manage multiple school campuses, an NWS alert might warn of severe storms statewide—but Perry Weather Forecasts pinpoint your district, so you only receive alerts when your specific schools are impacted.

With Perry Weather, forecasts are:
✅ Location-specific (pinpointed to your region, not your entire state).
✅ Clear & actionable (no vague warnings, just direct insights).
✅ Updated in real time (because weather changes fast).

The result? Less downtime, more time to prepare, and safer decisions—every time.

How Do Perry Weather Forecasts Compare to NWS Alerts?

Perry Weather Forecasts are designed to complement and enhance the valuable information you receive from NWS, not replace it.
