My Community Was Hit Hard. So Heart Breaking

Hi, my name is Dalton, and I’m the creator of HALLSTORMCAST — a grassroots weather stream built to keep people safe and informed during severe weather.

Since I was a kid, I’ve been obsessed with weather. I used to sit by the NOAA Weather Radio for hours, then flip over to The Weather Channel just to watch live storm coverage — even if it wasn’t in my area. There’s something powerful and humbling about nature. But I’ve also seen firsthand how dangerous it can be.

That’s why I’m launching this GoFundMe — to take HALLSTORMCAST to the next level and build a reliable, real-time weather channel for my community and surrounding areas. If my voice can give someone the few extra minutes they need to get to safety — even if it's just one life — then every bit of this journey is worth it.

Growing Fast – HALLSTORMCAST Is Already Making Waves

Just recently, my Facebook page saw a 13K% increase in reach in just two days. That means the work I’m doing is already getting noticed — and it’s reaching thousands of new people who may need timely weather alerts. This kind of growth shows there's a real need and demand for what I'm building.

With the right tools, I can take this momentum and turn it into a professional, dependable weather platform — one that doesn’t just inform, but helps save lives.

️ What I’m Raising Funds For:

I’m asking for $5,000 to build a professional-grade weather stream setup that can:

Run high-quality live broadcasts with radar, alerts, and video

Monitor multiple sources at once with dual screens

Provide storm chasing coverage from the road

Deliver timely, accurate warnings when it matters most

Here's the Breakdown:

Item Purpose Est. Cost

Monitor Display radar feeds & alerts during streams $150

Radar Software (RadarOmega, GRLevel3) Live storm tracking overlays $300

Microphone & Audio Gear Clear professional voice quality $250

Webcam / DSLR Cam Face cam and live coverage clarity $300–$600

Storm Chasing Gear Dash cams, power banks, mobile tools $300

Lighting + Green Screen Pro studio look for forecast streams $150

Graphics/Animations/Overlays Stream branding and weather alerts $250

GoPro or Action Cam Field footage and mobile recording $300

Backup Power / UPS Protection during severe storms $200

Cables, cloud storage, apps Extra tools and future upgrades $500

TOTAL GOAL $5,000

Once fully built, HALLSTORMCAST will also become a platform for those who supported it. If you're a local business, creator, or brand — I want to help give back.

Supporters will have the opportunity to become official sponsors, with benefits like:

Logo placement on stream

Shoutouts during severe weather broadcasts

“Sponsored by” radar or segment mentions

Promotion on social media and YouTube

It’s a win-win: you help fund a life-saving service, and you get valuable local exposure.

How You Can Help:

Your support — whether it’s $5, $50, or just a share — will help bring life-saving information to people who need it. You’re not just funding gear. You’re helping build a system that warns families before the storm hits.

Thank you for believing in this mission and helping HALLSTORMCAST grow into a voice for safety and awareness during severe weather. Let’s build this together — one storm at a time.
