EWN can provide location based alert services to assist with critical planning decisions for businesses and professionals. Delivered by email, SMS or fax they include rainfall probabilities, severe weather forecasting, wind strength alerts and custom forecasts. These are ideal for construction, resources, energy, government and the business sector.

Forecasts are issued by qualified meteorologists in a tailored format and time frequency to suit your needs. For example:

Winds are likely to swing towards the northeast in the coming hours and strengthen thanks to a complex low pressure trough which will result in moderate to heavy rainfall across the Sydney-Illawarra-Hunter region today. Forecast model guidance for today is highly varied - and as such this forecast has a higher degree of uncertainty but observation stations further north of Port Kembla are all showing significantly increased wind speeds during the last few hours as the winds have swung towards the northeast and this trend is expected to continue southwards this morning and persist today. However should this fail to reach the area winds may be much lighter than forecast.
