A weather chat bot that's on the air.
FRED watches the sky around the clock, talks through what's happening, and answers when you ask him something.

What FRED does
He's a host, not a dashboard. Plain-spoken, a little dry, and always pointed at whatever the weather is doing right now.
Severe weather coverage
Tornado, severe thunderstorm and flood warnings get called out as they happen, with the places in the path.
Live radar
The map is always up, and FRED talks you through what the storms on it are doing.
Local forecasts
Ask for your town and he'll put together a forecast on air, with the times it was issued so you know how fresh it is.
Outlooks and the bigger picture
Where the next few days are setting up, and why one region is quiet while another isn't.
Tropics and outages
Hurricane season updates, plus where the power is going out when the weather turns.
Quiet-day material
When nothing's happening he doesn't go silent. Weather lessons, live landmark cameras, and the occasional nap.
You can talk to him
Stream chat is how FRED knows what people want to hear about. Ask a question, request your town, or just say hi.
He remembers regulars and gives them a hard time about it.
