# 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

## Installation:

Clone the Repository and copy the "nws_alerts" directory to your "custom_components" directory in your config directory

```<config directory>/custom_components/nws_alerts/...```

You will end up with two files in that directory - ```"sensor.py"``` and ```"__init__.py"```.


## Configuration:

You can find your Zone or County ID by going to https://alerts.weather.gov/, scroll down to your state and click on the “zone list” and/or "county list" then look for the entry for your county.
