Everbridge Adds Severe Weather Alerts

Wildfire? Tornado? Hurricane? Glendale-based Everbridge, which provides cloud-based emergency alert systems, said this morning that it is adding severe weather alerts to its service, in a deal with weather content provider Weather Decision Technologies (WDT). Everbridge said that it now provides severe weather alerts--information on such things as lightning, tornadoes, thunderstorms, hail, ice, snow, extreme temperatures, high winds, flash floods, and flooding--as part of its service. Financial details of the link between the companies was not announced. Everbridge's systems are used for mass notification, emergency notifications, and more.
