[LAST UPDATED:8/20/2026- 1:21AM CST/ 2:21AM EST/12:21AM PST. this is OFFICIAL NWS storm predictions from the Norman, OK storm prediction center what to do in each risk area!: 1. Marginal Risk (Level 1/5) What it means: A few storms might become strong. Most people won’t see severe weather. Think: isolated hail, a few strong wind gusts, maybe a brief tornado but unlikely. What to do: Stay weather‑aware. Check radar occasionally. Have a way to get warnings, just in case. 2. Slight Risk (Level 2/5) What it means: Scattered severe storms are possible. Not everyone gets hit, but storms that do form can be legitimately strong. Think: hail, damaging winds, a couple tornadoes possible. What to do: Keep your phone charged. Know where to go if a warning is issued. Pay attention to weather updates. ⛈️ 3. Enhanced Risk (Level 3/5) What it means: Numerous severe storms expected. Some could be significant. Think: larger hail, widespread damaging winds, a few tornadoes (possibly strong). What to do: Actively monitor weather. Avoid outdoor plans during peak storm time. Make sure you can get alerts instantly (phone, NOAA radio). Know your safe place (interior room, lowest floor). ‼️ 4. Moderate Risk (Level 4/5) What it means: Widespread severe storms likely. Some will be intense. Think: strong tornadoes, destructive winds, very large hail. What to do: Stay near shelter options. Don’t travel during storm windows. Follow local weather closely. Be ready to take shelter quickly. ‼️⛈️‼️ 5. High Risk (Level 5/5) What it means: This is rare. It means a major severe weather outbreak is expected. Think: long‑track violent tornadoes, widespread destructive winds, life‑threatening storms. What to do: Treat it seriously. Stay indoors and near shelter. Have multiple ways to get warnings. If a tornado warning is issued, take shelter immediately. Avoid travel unless absolutely necessary.
used copilot.microsoft for the logo. used NOAA for SPC outlook. used scratch for code, assembling, and publishing. I want to support weatherwise so, go use it over any other doodoo water weather site. [i guess besides NOAA?]
