There is a proposal to eliminate all Advisory, Special Weather Statement (SPS), and Short Term Forecast (NOW) headlines, and streamline all sub-Watch/Warning-level information into a plain-language statement. A short overview about this proposed change can be viewed here: https://www.weather.gov/media/notification/ref/Hazard_Simplification_Proposal.pdf (PDF)
The National Weather Service has scheduled a series of interactive Partner Webinars to present these proposed changes and collect feedback. ALL NWS partners and key stakeholders are welcome to attend these webinars.
There are 5 webinars for partners to choose from, each of which will cover the same material. See below for information on the other offerings and links to register for each webinar.
Stakeholder participation and input is critical for this proposal! For more information about the Hazard Simplification initiative, please visit: https://www.weather.gov/hazardsimplification/
