Subject: experimental use of bulleted winter storm /WSW/ and non precipitation /npw/ watch... warning and advisory products
Beginning December 8 2009 and ending may 29 2010... Portland weather forecast office /WFO/ will begin modifying the winter weather /WSW/ and non precipitation /npw/ formats to produce experimental bulleted watch... warning and advisory products with a format similar to severe thunderstorm and flash flood warnings. These formats are easier for users to read and quickly gather vital information during hazardous winter and non-precipitation events. During the test period... Portland WFO may temporarily revert back to the current format to maintain mission critical warning services.
A product description document /pdd/ for these experimental products including a list of other affected wfos and examples of the bullet formatted WSW and npw products are available at /use lowercase/:
