WARNINGS TO GET HAIL SIZE-WIND GUST TAGS
Continuing for 2011 all NWS
offices in the north central U-S will add a tag line to severe thunderstorm
warnings, follow up statements, and special marine warnings. This tag will
indicate the maximum expected hail size and wind speed expected with a given
warning. Inclusion of this information represents an effort to respond to
partner requests from the emergency management community as well as several
societal impact groups. The target audience for this product includes
national, state and local emergency managers, media, the private weather
enterprise, government, and military agencies.From
