  Hey Chris,

  I think you misread the announcement. What they will no longer do is issue an alert on the SAME system for Special Weather Statements. This does NOT affect watches and warnings...just the special weather statements which are no more than advisories to let the listeners know of the possibility of activity.

  The SAME system will remain intact and in use as it has been for several years now. No changes are being made to it.

  John, if this is not correct, please correct me.

  Thanks!
  Allen
