The Promotion for Development – PROMODEV officially announces the launch of the public beta of Haiti-MÉTÉO, a national climate information platform designed to help citizens, producers, businesses, media, and institutions better understand weather conditions and the main risks that can affect Haiti.<\/p>

Accessible at www.haitimeteo.org<\/a>, the platform provides seven-day weather forecasts, data for the ten departmental capitals, monitoring of cyclonic activity, a state of vigilance, maps related to rainfall, floods, earthquakes, heat, and drought, as well as bulletins and awareness content. It is available in French, Haitian Creole, and English. It can also be installed on a phone and store certain information in case of temporary loss of connection.<\/p>

Haiti-MÉTÉO is a complementary solution designed to help bridge persistent gaps in access to weather information and early alerts in Haiti. It aims to support the population, strengthen the work of meteorological authorities and Civil Protection, and promote faster, accessible, and understandable communication of useful information for risk prevention.<\/p>

Automated data comes from identified sources, including Open-Meteo, NOAA, the National Hurricane Center, USGS, and other specialized agencies. Users should always check the source, date, and time of the information before making a safety-related decision.<\/p>

This public beta represents an important but evolving step. It will allow PROMODEV to observe the platform's operation in real conditions, gather public feedback, and gradually improve the accuracy, accessibility, resilience, and usefulness of the services offered. Users can also subscribe to receive Haiti-MÉTÉO bulletins directly in their inbox.<\/p>

PROMODEV invites the Haitian population, the diaspora, organizations, media, universities, businesses, and technical partners to discover the platform, use it wisely, and contribute to its improvement.<\/p>
