This page is a work in progress. The following products are updated
regularly. As a new product is issued, the old one is overwritten.
Click on a product to view the last-issued version of it. You can also
use this list to see which products are of most interest to you when
deciding which you would like us to send to send to your e-mail Inbox or
to your text pager.
While your Inbox can handle any text product, pagers are a different story.
We do not recommend sending just any product to your pager since most pagers
have a limit of from 140 to 240 characters, and/or because your paging company
may divide "pages" into 80-character sets, each of which might count as an
additional page, which could end up costing you much more than you
planned. For this reason, we recommend sending only watches and
warnings to your pager. We have a special script which can abbreviate
those to fit neatly in your display. For example, we can send only the
important part of a watch or warning statement, such as "NWS-JAX HAS ISSUED
A TORNADO WARNING FOR ALACHUA CO UNTIL 4:55 PM." And even that statement is
durther abbreviated to "NWS-JAX HAS ISSD A TOR WRNG FOR ALACHUA CO TIL 4:55 PM".
If you have a cellphone with an unlimited text plan, then you probably won't be
able to get enough from us. :)
Just write down which products you would like, and then send us an e-mail at
acemwin@alachuaskywarn.org
to let us know where to send them, how you would like them formatted, and
which counties you would like covered. We can cover more than just Alachua
County.

Local Area Civil Emergency Products
(These products are actually planned for "local" broadcast over NWR and
perhaps local TV and radio stations when local emergencies occur.
These products were implemented into NWS dissemination Sept. 30, 2003.
Obviously, some won't apply to our area. EM agencies in the NWS-JAX County
Warning Area haven't much made use of these products yet, I have noted. But
nonetheless, I have them prepared-for in the below list in case they ever
are issued at some time or another. NWS-JAX *has* issued the CEM on earlier
occasion. However, that stopped a while ago and none have been seen since
2003.
UPDATE - SEP 16, 2008: These products ARE listed in the NOAA Data Management
Catalog. There ARE other NWS Field Offices out there issuing them. ...Just
not *NWS-JAX*. At one time in the past Al Sandrik did state to me that he
considered the CEM and CAE products a huge pain in the a** because some of the
EM agencies never knew what they were doing with them and because they always
sent out far too many of them, duping them across many surrounding NWS agencies
- which would cause repeated alarms and re-alarms. So he "unofficially" banned
their use inside of NWS-JAX - at least under their official product
identifiers. He *is* correct. In the beginning, it occurred very often. It
still happens even TODAY, but to a much lesser degree. Still, the product
identifiers are there and they should be used in their proper manner.
There are other services which could make excellent good use of these bulletins
in particular and bring much improved public service, but only if the proper
product identifiers are used - religiously. But it can work only if EM and
NWS get together and learn how to properly use these things. Right now, it's
pot luck IF any of these are used locally. And if they are used, they're
hidden under other product identifiers due to laziness on the part of
the particular met issuing the bulletin. For example, many just generally
get placed inside of the "ADM" bulletin, which was not exactly how that
bulletin was mintended to be used. According to the NWSI instruction manual,
the ADM is, if anything, to be used for followups/updates on the
statuses of the other bulletins, NOT AS THE INITIAL DISTRIBUTING MEANS for
issuing the bulletins. However, local NWS employees tend to see this
particular bulletin as a lazy man's "catch all" whenever they don't want to
actually type up a brand new bulletin under a separate identifier. This is not
good because it could encourage other NWS employees at other NWSFOs to
do the same. This can cause confusion.
UPDATE - JUNE 22, 2009: I haven't seen much movement at all from local NWS or
EM agencies in actually making these particular bulletins come to real effect
locally in EMWIN, at least under their PROPER product identifiers, and it does
not appear very likely that it ever will, now. When on very rare
occasion they do use the below products, I have seen some of them being
issued generically under other product identifiers that people wouldn't expect
after looking at the database list, and for which EMWIN software is NOT able to
properly be able to separate, sort out, and alarm for. NWS-JAX is NOT using the
standard product identifier conventions in some bulletins and that seems a
little inappropriate. I still leave them up here just in case it COULD come to
fruition at some point in the future. At this time, AC-EMWIN *is* already set
up and ready to handle these messages locally. Should they be issued locally,
AC-EMWIN is already set up to redistribute them to the AC-SKYWARN Email Alert
List.)
ADR NWS ADMINISTRATIVE MESSAGE (EXTERNAL)
A SERIOUS NOTE ABOUT THIS PRODUCT'S USAGE! This product is NOT designed to
be used as a Civil Emergency Product. HOWEVER, I include it in here because
many forecast offices across the country are using this very bulletin, meant
as an ADMINISTRATIVE ANNOUNCEMENTS bulletin, to broadcast many of the below
civil emergency bulletins. THEREFORE, alarming for the REAL products is near
to impossible because even the NWS is not playing by their own message
format and dissemination rules. By placing the civil products in the ADM
message name instead of the BELOW messages, I am unable to alarm for their
occurance, properly.
