I use this extension for daily rain updates and love it! If anyone needs more specific storm alerts or hurricane tracking, Storm Tracker is another great tool to stay informed about extreme weather. link - https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/storm-tracker-hurricane-t/bnkaaocadlimipknmjoebcfnjfffdnif
