Considering Proposing Changes in Offshore Warning Display

The NWS is considering proposing changes in Web Page Display of Marine
Warnings Over Offshore Waters |
The National Weather Service has recieved a number of comments
about offshore warnings highlighting very large marine areas when
Gale, Storm, Tropical Storm, Hurricane, and Hurricane Force Wind
Warnings are in effect over the offshore water. There has been
expressed concern these warnings highlight the entire zone, not just
the actual event within that zone, and create unwarranted anxiety
of the potential for danger in neighboring coastal waters and land
areas.
Several options are being considered. Any proposed changes to the National and
local Weather Forecast Office displays of offshore warnings on
NWS Web pages will be opened for public comment.
