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.

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.
