-# NWS Alerts (nws_alerts)
+# Alerts from the US National Weather Service  (nws_alerts)
 
 An updated version of the nws_alerts custom integration for Home Assistant originally found at github.com/eracknaphobia/nws_custom_component
 
+This integration retrieves updated weather alerts every minute from the US NWS API.
+
+The integration presents the number of currently active alerts as the state of the sensor and lists many alert details as a list in the attributes of the sensor.
+
+The sensor that is created is used in my "NWS Alerts Custom" package - https://github.com/finity69x2/NWS-Alerts-Custom-Package
