In South Florida, a regional weather forecast often just doesn't cut it. "On any particular summer afternoon, I could be caught in a thunderstorm, whereas maybe a mile away, it could be dry as a bone," said Ed Mansouri, the founder and CEO of a new weather service. OrangeSTEM is a platform for monitoring hyper-local weather conditions throughout Florida. Emergency managers, researchers and forecasters are using it to analyze, plan, and respond.

Governor Scott urges state to prepare for hurricane season

If this hurricane season is anything like last years – or worse – residents and emergency management need every form of help they can get. That includes precise measurements of temperature, humidity, wind speed and direction, air pressure, rainfall, and solar radiation. One innovative asset some emergency managers are using is called Weatherstem. Weatherstem is basically an all-in-one weather tracker that sends out hyper-local alerts and records data at a specific point in Florida. A network of these weather stations across the state, OrangeSTEM, forms a first line of defense against the storm.
