Introducing Hazards Posts 2.0

You may have seen the debut of our new Special Weather Watch this evening (Click here)

Now, we are debuting a whole system of those.

Similar to the NWS/SPC watches and warnings, a post is issued whenever there is a weather situation.
Below are BETA names for these new posts.

For tornado-related posts:
-Tornadic Condition Advisory/Watch/Warning

For severe thunderstorm-related posts:
-Elevated Weather Advisory/Watch/Warning

For minor posts (such as light rain or gusty winds):
-Minor Weather Advisory/Watch

For winter weather-related posts:
-Wintry Weather Advisory/Watch/Warning

For other types of posts (Stormy seas, flooding, high winds):
-Special Weather Advisory/Watch/Warning
