Tsunami Warning Tracker: Active NOAA Alerts by Area
Check for active tsunami warnings, watches, and advisories from the official NOAA/National Weather Service alerts feed. Optionally scope to specific coastal states so you only see what matters for your operations.
Output (sample)
{"id": "urn:oid:2.49.0.1.840.0.abc123","event": "Tsunami Warning","severity": "Extreme","certainty": "Observed","urgency": "Immediate","headline": "Tsunami Warning issued for the coastal areas of California","description": "A tsunami warning is in effect...","instruction": "Move to high ground or inland immediately.","areaDesc": "Coastal Los Angeles County","senderName": "NWS Los Angeles CA","effective": "2026-09-19T08:00:00-07:00","expires": "2026-09-19T14:00:00-07:00","nwsUrl": "https://api.weather.gov/alerts/urn:oid:..."}
No active alerts returns an empty result, still billed once for the check.
Who this is for
- Coastal emergency management teams running a standing check instead of manually watching NOAA's site.
- Ports and shipping operations deciding whether to hold or divert vessels.
- Coastal property and insurance teams who need an automated trigger for a wider alert process.
Input
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
areas | array | Two-letter US state/territory codes, e.g. ["CA", "HI", "AK"]. Leave empty for all coastal areas nationwide. |
severities | array | Limit to "Tsunami Warning", "Tsunami Watch", "Tsunami Advisory". Leave empty for all three. |
{"areas": ["CA", "HI"]}
How it works
One direct call to the official NWS/NOAA alerts API (api.weather.gov),
the same data source and reliability pattern already proven in
US Weather Tracker and
Field Operations Risk Briefing
in this portfolio: automatic retries on transient failures, a per-attempt
timeout so a slow response cannot hang the run. No key, no proxy, no
scraping, public-domain US government data.
