NWS weather support is designed for those events that, as an Emergency Manager, you feel are particularly vulnerable to weather due to location, size or nature of the event. The NWS is committed to providing decision support services on behalf of the EM community in order to help support public safety. After you submit a request for weather support, we will put together a Hazardous Weather Action Plan for your event (example below). The Plan is designed to help you prepare for a variety of weather hazards and scenarios.
