The National Severe Storms Laboratory mobilized their “Precipitation Identification Near the Ground” project (PING) so you can help them collect weather data anytime, anywhere.

Are snowflakes fallin’ on your head? Are you getting pinged by hail? Tell us where you are and what is hitting the ground. NSSL scientists will compare your report with what the radar has detected, and develop new radar technologies and techniques to determine what kind of precipitation—such as snow, soft hail, hard hail, or rain—is falling where.

You can report weather data via devices on the Android and iOS platforms. You can find more apps like mPing on the USA.gov Apps Gallery.
