ALERT Lights
Alert lights are classified according to the event's degree
of urgency and severity.
WARNING (Red Light)
A WARNING is issued when a hazardous weather or
hydrologic event is occurring, imminent or likely. A
WARNING means weather conditions pose a threat to
life or property. People in the path of the storm need to
take protective action.
WATCH (Orange Light)
A WATCH is used when the risk of a hazardous weather
or hydrologic event has increased significantly, but
its occurrence, location or timing is still uncertain. It is
intended to provide enough lead time so those who need
to set their plans in motion can do so. A WATCH means
that hazardous weather is possible. People should have
a plan of action in case a storm threatens and they
should listen for later information and possible warnings
especially when planning travel or outdoor activities.
