Weather resilience for every context, community, or situation
Severe weather is a universal challenge, but it presents differently in different contexts. Click on the map below to learn about the many different faces of severe weather risk management.
Power Utilities
Utility infrastructure is susceptible to damage from extreme weather, putting the workers who maintain it at risk. Accurate forecasts help teams know when and where to proactively perform maintenance, and real-time storm information tells them where to respond.
Brick-and-Mortar Businesses
Every business has a responsibility to keep employees and customers safe, no matter what Mother Nature brings their way. With forecasting and alerting services, any business can know when it’s responsible to close and when it’s safe to reopen.
Colleges & Universities
A college is like a miniature city. Accurate weather intelligence helps administrators and employees understand how to prioritize work, when to cancel classes, and so on. Universities also play a key role in weather research and monitoring.
Construction Companies
Many construction activities simply cannot be done in inclement weather. Maintaining deadlines requires working every shift and hour that’s amenable to work and keeping workers away from sites where bad weather will limit productivity.
Sports & Event Venues
Weather is the main consideration when it comes to determining whether it’s safe to participate in sports, concerts, and other outdoor activities. Precision forecasts and on-premises weather monitoring provide the data needed to make smart decisions.
Airports
Safety is incredibly important at the airport, and so is maintaining the flow of passengers and freight. Airports need impeccably reliable severe weather alerts so they know when to suspend ground crew activities and when to resume.
Shipping & Transportation
Weather disrupts the supply chain somewhere every day. Understanding where conditions are impacting shipping routes and how that picture will develop in the near future is key to maintaining deadlines and the flow of commerce.
Schools & Parks
Real-time weather information, up-to-the-minute forecasts for a park or school’s precise location, and automated weather alerts simplify decision-making and communication around activities, dismissal times, and beyond to keep people safer.
Local Governments
When severe weather strikes, city and county leaders are responsible for staging assets, assessing the situation, and leading a targeted response. Real-time hyperlocal data helps them understand where to focus efforts when time matters most.
Frequently Asked Questions
The publicly available forecasts you see on television or free websites are generally based on good data, but they’re created with a large area in mind. To get more strategic forecasts for business operations or public safety, you need to increase the amount of local data from your specific area feeding into weather models and work with a meteorologist who understands your specific goals. With those two pieces in place, you can significantly improve the quality, reliability, and specificity of your weather intelligence.
Not necessarily—but it depends on your goals. While lightning sensors provide the highest level of precision and independence, AEM also offers access to one of the most comprehensive lightning detection networks in the world: the Earth Networks Total Lightning Network (ENTLN). ENTLN covers vast geographic areas and detects both in-cloud and cloud-to-ground strikes with industry-leading accuracy. If your organization prefers on-site sensing or operates in regions without network coverage, installing your own lightning sensor may be the right choice. We’re happy to help evaluate the best approach based on your location, operations, and risk profile.
Installing on-site weather stations gives your team access to accurate, hyperlocal environmental data in real time. This empowers better decision-making, particularly in remote or weather-sensitive operations like construction, utilities, mining, transportation, or emergency management. With real-time monitoring of conditions like wind, rainfall, temperature, and lightning, teams can improve safety, reduce downtime, and enhance compliance with operational or regulatory standards. It also means your data isn’t generalized—you get precise insights where they matter most.
When analyzing lightning, total lightning data is key—which includes both cloud-to-ground and in-cloud lightning. In-cloud activity often precedes more dangerous strikes, making it a critical predictor. Additional valuable metrics include lightning strike rate, location, polarity, peak current, and storm cell tracking data. These insights can help researchers, meteorologists, and public safety teams better understand storm development, anticipate escalation, and issue earlier warnings. AEM’s ENTLN and Elements 360 platform provide all of these metrics in real time for proactive weather risk management.
Sports teams use weather alert systems powered by lightning detection networks and severe weather forecasting to monitor conditions in real time. Platforms like AEM Elements 360 and Sferic Maps allow teams to set custom thresholds (e.g., lightning within 10 miles) and receive automated alerts across multiple channels—text, sirens, apps, or signage. These tools help venue operators and athletic directors make timely decisions, protect players and fans, and comply with safety protocols and insurance requirements.
