I like this. Nothing has changed and it’s in no way fear mongering which is why most changes are made. These inland hurricane/ts warnings have always been issued so it’s good to see them finally go on a graphic. Honestly strange they were never on there in the first place.

Yeah, they're consolidating products that were already publicly available. Most people only see "the cone", and too many fail to account for the size and scope of a storm. They see that center line, see they are twenty miles away from it, and think they're fine.

This at least makes that information more readily available without having to do any further "digging". I'm sure there will be issues with it, though, like always with messaging changes.
