Weathernet Services

Serving as the weather operations arm of The Narwhal Group, Weathernet provides 24/7 service to hundreds of public and private sector clients across the United States and Canada. For more than 35 years, Weathernet has focused on forecasting weather-based impacts and decision support for a wide variety of clients primarily in the areas of road weather, airport operations, construction, and event forecasting. In addition, our experience has extended to energy and utilities companies, manufacturing, agriculture, and educational institutions. Our team of specialized meteorologists is continually striving to deliver the best operations support and customer service in the industry. Each meteorologist is trained to understand specific concerns faced by individual clients, enabling the forecaster to provide critical information with unparalleled accuracy for making the most informed and effective operational decisions.

For both local and state transportation agencies, our primary focus is providing valuable information that supports our clients' missions of safely and efficiently operating their roadway networks. Weathernet strives to deliver the best forecasting and customer service in the transportation industry by providing customized decision support to each client. This includes network-specific weather forecasts and the impact on roadway operations, along with 24/7 decision support by phone with a meteorologist. This approach and direct communications are critical during dynamic weather situations, aiding in better decisions before and during events.

Weathernet provides decision support services throughout the year to airports of all sizes. Winter airport operations are complex, so our team provides hyper-localized forecasts that identify direct impacts to runways during snow and ice events. In the summer months, our automated lightning alerts help keep airport operations staff and passengers safe from harm, especially for plane refueling operations. These services are complemented by 24/7 decision support by phone and constant weather monitoring. Our forecasters are also available for conference calls where they can brief airport personnel about potential significant weather issues. Ultimately, our methods keep airport operations aware of changing weather conditions, quickly providing answers to any questions or concerns.

Our primary focus for the construction industry is the safety and productivity of our clients. From decades of experience, Weathernet has acquired a deep understanding of how weather can impact construction activities, both daily and long-term. Whether posting lightning alerts to keep workers safe, pinpointing rainfall timing and amount to plan concrete pours, detailing wind direction and speeds during tower crane operations, or forecasting snow and ice for crew planning; our team encourages communication with clients through 24/7 decision support before and during construction activities.

Weathernet provides customized forecasts and alerts for a variety of outdoor activities; including large sporting events, arts festivals, music concerts, and video/movie productions. Our focus is always the safety of the event staff and attendees, while striving to maintain as minimal interruption to the event as possible. Our staff delivers the best forecasting and customer service by providing 24/7 support and weather alerts to event organizers and managers, keeping them aware of any and all potential concerns. This up-to-the-minute monitoring maximizes the safety of attendees and staff by providing advanced warning of any approaching dangerous conditions, such as high winds or lightning.

Road weather information systems (RWIS) and environmental sensor stations (ESS) are critical elements of any successful weather program or weather-dependent operation. The collection of data in critical areas or in specific micro-climates provides crucial real-time information. This data can aid important functions like operational and maintenance decisions, as well as helping ensure accurate weather forecasts; directly impact the safety and operation of roadway networks. Furthermore, a sound maintenance program can ensure accuracy and reliability of data, which is of paramount importance. As a leader in the industry with over two decades of experience; Weathernet can provide turnkey or individualized instrumentation services including design, install, maintenance, and programming.
