I have used this script. Works well. asterisk at home festival weather configuration MP3 Audio directly from NOAA! Updated URLs on 12-15-06 If you are in the San Diego NOAA Office area (and maybe others, check your regional NOAA Office homepage from http://weather.gov/), you can get an audio file of the current forecast for your zone and play it directly. For the San Diego NOAA Office area, go to http://newweb.wrh.noaa.gov/sgx/and click on the Audio selection under Forecasts. Get the URL of the audio file for your zone from the map. Create an announcement in wav format from: http://www.research.att.com/~ttsweb/tts/demo.php I like the UK-Audrey voice, but try some others too. Make something like: latest-forecast.wav "Please wait while I download the latest forecast" select-weatherorvmc.wav "Press 1 for voicemail press 2 for the latest weather forecast" You will have to convert the wav files from 16000Hz to 8000Hz and maybe speed them up a bit (135%) and reduce the volume (60%) before you use them. Put them in /var/lib/asterisk/sounds named latest-forecast.wav and select-weatherorvmc.wav Add something like this to your extensions.conf (maybe in the rans<http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/rans>section) to get the latest forecast when you dial whatever extension (like 865) that you choose. My extensions.conf for audio weather: exten => 865,1,Answer exten => 865,2,Playback(latest-forecast) exten => 865,3,System(/usr/bin/curl -s http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/sgx/data/audio/LAXSAFC42.mp3 > /tmp/LAXSAFC42.mp3) exten => 865,4,Wait(1) exten => 865,5,MP3Player(/tmp/LAXSAFC42.mp3) exten => 865,6,System(rm /tmp/LAXSAFC42.mp3 -f) exten => 865,7,Hangup If you have trouble, make sure you have curl installed, change the path above if necessary. find / -type f -name "curl" will find your curl executable. I'm using MP3Player instead of Playback because I don't have a sound card in the Asterisk box so mpg123 fails when it tries to use /dev/dsp. I suppose there is a way to have a dummy dev, but I don't know how. If you do use Playback instead of MP3Player, don't use the .mp3 file extension in your extensions.conf. http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/asterisk+at+home+festival+weather+configu...

I know there is weather scripts for irlp. But I am not having any luck for allstar. I am wondering is there anyone who has one is willing to help build one. What I am looking for just a weather alert script for the severe alerts. I don’t want a full blown weather forcast.
Any help appreciated
