Techniques for automatically outputting severe weather notifications at a user's mobile computing service

A computer-implemented technique is presented. The technique can include receiving, at a mobile computing device including one or more processors, an input from a user, the input indicating a weather severity threshold for providing a notification at the mobile computing device. The technique can include determining, at the mobile computing device, one or more locations where the mobile computing device is likely to be, indicative of a likely location of a user, during a future period of time based on user-related data. The technique can include receiving, at the mobile computing device, a weather prediction for the future period of time for each of the one or more locations. The technique can also include automatically outputting, at the mobile computing device, the notification when the weather prediction for at least one of the one or more locations exceeds the weather severity threshold and: (i) at a first time when none of the one or more locations is greater than a distance threshold from a home location of the user, and (i) at a second time when at least one of the one or more locations is greater than the distance threshold from the home location the user, wherein the second time is before the first time.
