Storm Target is a program I created to solve a problem I was having while chasing storms. With a 100 different things going on during a chase, I would often miss products issued by the National Weather Service. I would either be busy navigating or tracking storms on the radar and miss a mesoscale discussion or forecast discussion. Storm Target automatically retrieves alerts when they are issued and alerts you of them. I also included several other features designed to save time when out on a chase.
You can check it out by visiting StormTarget.com . You can download a free trial. The program is $35 if you decide to buy.
