PRESS RELEASE: The NWS is moving forward with the next step in the Hazard Simplification Project; that is, with the decision to remove the terms “Advisory” and “Special Weather Statement” and replace them with plain language headlines. We are seeking public comment on this change.
We are asking folks with comments, good or bad, to send them tohazsimp@noaa.gov. For those who are really into the meat and potatoes, here is the Product Description Document explaining the entire transition.
