Update Nov.25.2009: The twitter name has changed to @meteo_alarm. Please update your bookmark or follow list.

Between code refactoring and cooking new ideas, I took some time to add a new feature to Spincloud. Inspired by the crowd-sourced weather updates triggered by really bad snow storms in the UK, I (finally) started to see the advantages to using Twitter. So I took the Meteoalarm data that I mashed-up on Spincloud’s map and streamed it to Twitter.

So here it is: Meteoalarm on Twitter via Spincloud = @Meteoalarm @Meteo_alarm. The stream is updated twice a day and it presents a concise text-only representation of the color encoded weather warnings  in Europe for today and tomorrow.
