Description
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rule changes allow for the expansion of WEA from the previous maximum of 90 characters to a maximum of 360 characters. These rule changes also allow for transmission of Spanish language WEA messages. NWS solicited public feedback on the proposed expansion of Snow Squall Warnings to the new 360 character maximum and the proposed content of the NWS messages carried by WEA in English and Spanish and has finalized those messages. The planned implementation of these Snow Squall Warning WEA messages will be completed on or after XXX, 2020.
