NWS is using social media tools to educate the public and share critical information related to our mission. Engaging the public and our partners in effective conversation around important weather, water, and climate issues is part of our effort to build a Weather-Ready Nation.

Instagram is a popular photo sharing app for iOS and Android. Instagram can be a useful tool for NWS to further interact with customers and the general public in areas such as outreach, safety, and education. It can also be used to help brand the agency, showcasing “the best of” who we are and what we do. NWS will be providing a prototype of use of Instagram to explore usefulness of the app to the NWS mission and to solicit feedback from the broader community.

More information on the project and how to provide feedback can be found here.

The following accounts are part of the prototype:
