STATE COLLEGE, Pa., March 22, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- AccuWeather today announced the introduction of the revolutionary WeatherShow Enhancer™, a newly developed software and hardware display system built on AccuWeather's popular StoryTeller+® Touchscreen System. The Enhancer will immediately give you a distinct and superior look through significantly increased special effects.

"The game-changing capabilities of the Enhancer will similarly elevate your weather show's appeal with more motion, better severe weather coverage, more video and quicker access to critical rapidly changing weather data, and many eye-catching interactions on screen."

The revolutionary WeatherShow Enhancer will make your current weather system come alive and significantly elevate your meteorologist's presentation with more motion and will multiply its capability and elevate your meteorologist's storytelling.

Gets severe weather warnings on air faster and with more meaningful information that you can filter to make more sense of complicated severe weather situations to better inform your viewers.
Spotlight tools that give meteorologists greater real time control and the ability to better highlight what is most important on screen.
