How to get the Disaster Warning Feed on your Pebble

There is a nice way to add the feed of the Global Disaster Alert and Coordination System (GDACS) to your Pebble.

You need to install Pebblets (not in the store because Pebble didn't allow that name in the store). After installing this, head to the settings for this in the Pebble app. There go to the feed section and enter a Name and the URL for the feed: http://www.gdacs.org/xml/rss.xml
Don't forget to submit your changes to the app.

And here we go.
Besides your normal weather info for several days that comes with Pebblets, you now can see the latest disaster events.

In addition, you can also set up more feeds like news, more weather details etc. to get even more information.
