What trip watch follows between checks

YouLocal · Last updated: 28 October 2026 · In italiano

Each leg of a trip you save is checked on a schedule (the flight’s status, the forecast, the route). Between those checks, for legs leaving in the next 72 hours, YouLocal also reads two official sources and tells you when something new concerns one of your legs. This page lists what they are and, country by country, where they apply. It is updated with each new source.

1. Official weather warnings (MeteoAlarm)

What. The yellow, orange and red warnings the national weather services publish through MeteoAlarm for wind, thunderstorms, rain, flooding, snow and ice, fog, avalanches and forest fires — and, for a boat, high seas and storm surge — in force from 3 hours before a departure to 1 hour after it (for a drive, until you arrive). Heat and cold warnings do not change a leg.
How often. Every 5 minutes. A warning that is withdrawn or lowered leaves your trip within about 10 minutes.
How we tell you. Orange and red: a notification and a message in your inbox. Yellow: the inbox and the trip panel, no notification.
Whose words. Each warning in the app names the national service that issued it and when, links to its page on www.meteoalarm.org, and carries the issuer’s own text in the inbox, unchanged.
Italy. We call Italy’s warnings avvisi (warnings), not allerte. The Italian service says so itself: “METEOALARM information do not provide the assessment of impact on the territory and they do not represent the Official Alerts messages that are issued by the National Civil Protection Service” (www.protezionecivile.gov.it).

2. Strikes (Italy)

Source. The strike calendar of the Ministero delle Infrastrutture e dei Trasporti (scioperi.mit.gov.it), read every hour.
What. Strikes in air transport, rail, sea transport, local public transport and taxis, and general strikes, in the place and at the hours of your leg.
How we tell you. A strike of your leg’s sector, or of its carrier: a notification and the inbox. A general strike that does not name the sector, or one that may involve a company on your leg: the inbox and the trip panel, no notification.
A strike does not mean your service is cancelled: check with the carrier.

3. Country by country

Elsewhere, no official source is followed between checks yet: your scheduled checks still run everywhere.

In breve, in italiano

Ogni tratta di un viaggio salvato viene controllata secondo un calendario (lo stato del volo, le previsioni, il percorso). Tra un controllo e l’altro, per le tratte in partenza nelle prossime 72 ore, YouLocal legge anche due fonti ufficiali:

Avvisi meteo ufficiali pubblicati tramite MeteoAlarm dai servizi meteorologici nazionali, nei paesi della tabella qui sopra, ogni 5 minuti. Arancione e rosso: notifica e messaggio nella posta in arrivo; giallo: posta in arrivo e pannello, senza notifica. Un avviso ritirato o abbassato lascia il viaggio entro circa 10 minuti.
Scioperi in Italia, dal calendario del Ministero delle Infrastrutture e dei Trasporti (scioperi.mit.gov.it), ogni ora: trasporto aereo, ferroviario, marittimo, pubblico locale, taxi e scioperi generali. Uno sciopero non vuol dire che il servizio è cancellato: verifica con il vettore.

Per l’Italia parliamo di avvisi, non di allerte: come scrive il servizio italiano, “le informazioni METEOALARM non forniscono la valutazione di impatto sul territorio e non rappresentano i messaggi di Allerta Ufficiali che vengono emessi dal Servizio Nazionale di Protezione Civile” (www.protezionecivile.gov.it).

Fonte degli avvisi meteo: MeteoAlarm — EUMETNET e i servizi meteorologici e idrologici nazionali partecipanti, www.meteoalarm.org. Sono possibili ritardi tra questo sito e il sito www.meteoalarm.org. Per gli avvisi più aggiornati pubblicati dai servizi meteorologici e idrologici nazionali partecipanti, consulta www.meteoalarm.org. (Traduzione: fa fede il testo inglese nella sezione 4.)
