The WeatherNation service delivers video and updated news coverage of current weather events. An all-meteorologist staff uses the latest technologies of VIPIR Systems from Baron Services and HD Fusion from Weather Central for forecasting and illustrating current conditions with 3D graphical mapping to help viewers understand the in-depth story behind the weather. A severe weather tracking system also gives WeatherNation meteorologists the ability to zoom down to town, neighborhood or even street level.
