New Met Office Warnings

[tornadica]

I was looking at the met office website last night, and happened to see a small advert for the new warning system which is colour coded from green to red. it was late and was gonna read it more in depth today but it seems to have disappeared. does anyone have any more in depth info on this?

It's there again this morning, clour coded according to severity of event. Obviously realised that one level of alert just gets the wrong response

well it seems that it will be a good idea, the warnings will be better IMO for the variations across the country. seems a bit like an american sort of thing but even so, good to see the met o making changes.

I found their guide page explaining it: http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/uk/guide/warnings.html

I like the new Metoffice warning system, I think its easier for people to understand now. Its pretty cool!

Great sutff to be honest. At least now people cant winge that they dont put up early enough warnings.
