Can we get a source on the flags?SailNet suggests this article has the maritime warning flags quite wrong -- they don't match one-to-one to the NOAA scale.VThawkeyetalk to me04:43, 8 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Are warnings and watches issued for boats well off any coast, or just wind/sea advisories within the GPS coordinates of the storm's reach? Are they called anything special once they reach TS or hurricane strength?TransUtopian14:06, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
It depends on the conutry responsible for that part of the ocean. NWS uses tropical storm warning and hurricane warning. Japan uses gale warning, storm warning and typhoon warning. Fiji, Australia and New Zealand uses gale warning, storm warning and hurricane warning.Momoko07:36, 20 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Would it be useful to mention these in the article? They're documented athttp://www.kadena.af.mil/weather/update/tccor.htm , among other places, and are what the US military uses to announce warning information about upcoming tropical cyclones. —CJewell(talk to me)04:55, 15 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
"Tropical stormsBefore the 1987 Atlantic hurricane season, tropical storm alerts were described as Gale Watches / Warnings, not distinguished from non-tropical storms."
If you look at this newpaper scan for Betsy,you can clearly see references to alerts.http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/storm_wallets/atlantic/atl1965/betsy/news/mh0908a.gif
I removed the text given it appears to be false.TheNobleSith (talk)23:21, 18 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Nevermind,my mistake.I just read a few public advisories,and yes,they did use gale warning.Undoing now.TheNobleSith (talk)23:25, 18 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The NWS directives ([1]) no longer contain any reference the the "Inland Tropical Storm Warning/Tropical Storm Wind Warning" or the "Inland Hurricane Warning/Hurricane Wind Warning." Furthermore, at this moment severalWELL inland counties seem to currently be under a regular "coastal" tropical storm warning. ([2],[3]) It appears that the HI.W and the TI.W may have been deprecated. The tropical storm warnings which used to look like this ([4]) and this ([5]) now look like this ([6]). The NWS has been considering abolishing the separation for years now ([7]) and they appear to have done just that. Should we either rm the tropical storm wind/inland tropical storm warning or mark them as deprecated? --Bowser the Storm Tracker Keeping skies brightChat Me Up12:40, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

{{StormSurgeWarnings}}I created a graphic that depicts the storm surge watch and the storm surge warning. Can this be used in the article? 14:58, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
Hello!I would like to request a revision of all English Wikipedia articles and templates containing the term "Tropical Cyclone Warning Signals."The Philippine's meteorological agencyPAGASA has changed the name of their tropical cyclone warning system from "Tropical CycloneWarning Signals" to "Tropical CycloneWind Signals" since 2019. Here's thereference where this change is explained.Thank you!—Nairb.Idi9 (talk)
