The FipsServer websites are created, maintained and hosted by Thunder Eagle for easy deployment.

Supporting NWS NWR Operations

The FipsServer system helps the NWS provide reliable weather alerts to the entire community. Many forecast offices cannot monitor their remote NOAA Weather Radio transmissions. FipsServer lets the NWS listen to their real time streaming audio, as well as receive automatic email confirmation EAS/SAME alerts. Through this system, NWR technical issues are often detected and corrected before they become major problems. Thunder Eagle is proud to support critical NWS operations.
