Embed the Winter Storm Warning Tracker

Put a free, live “Is there a winter storm warning?” widget on your site. It shows the current warning status and a 0–100 risk index for any city — updating itself and linking visitors to the full live forecast. No sign-up, no script bloat.

1. Pick a city & preview

Choose a location to preview the widget. Swap the city slug for any of our cities, or leave it out entirely to auto-detect each visitor’s location.

2. Copy the embed code

Option A — iframe (works anywhere, nothing to maintain):

<iframe src="https://www.winterstormwarning.org/embed?city=new-york-ny"
  title="Live winter storm warning status" width="100%" height="240"
  loading="lazy" style="border:0;max-width:440px;width:100%" allow="geolocation"></iframe>

Option B — script tag (drops in a responsive iframe for you):

<script src="https://www.winterstormwarning.org/assets/js/embed.js" data-city="new-york-ny"></script>

The widget is 240 px tall by default. To change it, add data-height="300" to the script tag (or edit height on the iframe).

How it works

Live & cached. Each widget shows the current computed winter-storm risk and status, refreshed about every 10 minutes. For US cities it also reflects official National Weather Service warnings.
Auto-detect mode. Leave off the city value and the widget asks the visitor’s browser for their location (with permission) and shows their local status. For the script tag, the embedding page must allow it with allow="geolocation" — already included above.
Lightweight & isolated. It loads in a sandboxed iframe, so it can’t clash with your site’s styles or scripts, and it carries no third-party trackers.
It links back. “View full forecast” opens the matching city page on winterstormwarning.org.

Please keep the “winterstormwarning.org” link. The widget is free to use on any site; in return we ask that you leave the attribution link in place. The data is a forecast estimate and not an official warning — visitors should always confirm with the National Weather Service and local authorities. Questions? Email contact@winterstormwarning.org.
