This page should not be speedy deleted as an unambiguous copyright infringement, because "the information on government servers are in the public domain, unless specifically annotated otherwise, and may be used freely by the public so long as you do not 1) claim it is your own(e.g. by claiming copyright for NWS information), 2) use it in a manner that implies an endorsement or affiliation with NOAA/NWS, or 3) modify it in content and then present it as official government material. You also cannot present information of your own in a way that makes it appear to be official government information."

I did not claim the info as my own. I did not imply endorsement or affiliation with the NWS. All info. is defined by the NWS and examples are all real and were really issued by the NWS.

NOTE: I checked the NWS disclaimer before creating this and related pages. Also, the Civil Danger Warning that was created and deleted on August 11th, 2012 also complied with the NWS disclaimer and should not have been deleted.
