### You first need to find either your NWS Zone ID or County ID. I’m not sure which is better but I used my Zone ID here.
### You can find your Zone ID by going to https://alerts.weather.gov/ 7, scroll down to your state and click on the “zone list” then look for the entry for your county.
### I recommond useing both
#I’ve taken much of the underlying work here and created a custom component for nws alerts sensor.
#The sensor can be created by adding the nws_alerts.py file to <config_directory>/custom_components/sensor/ and adding the following to your sensor definitions:
sensor:
- platform:nws_alerts
zone_id:'GAZ034,GAC135'
- platform:template
sensors:
flood_watch:
friendly_name:'Flood Watch'
entity_id:sensor.time
