Description:

The National Weather Service (NWS) is the governmental agency responsible for providing freely available weather forecasts, warnings, watches, and advisories for the protection of life and property. A primary channel through which NWS directly disseminates everyday and hazardous weather forecast products is its website, www.weather.gov. Among the more heavily accessed NWS webpages is the point-and-click (PnC) forecast webpage (Figure ES-1 is an example PnC forecast webpage). The PnC webpage has everyday and hazardous weather forecast information in graphical and textual formats for every 2.5 × 2.5 km grid over land in the United States. The PnC webpage contains forecast-at-a-glance information out to 4.5 days (commonly known for its forecast icons), a more detailed 7-day text forecast, links to hazardous weather forecast products (e.g., severe thunderstorm warning), current conditions, and links to other forecast and observation products.
