Description:Verification of severe local storm warnings Issued by National Weather Service offices Is performed at the National Severe Storms Forecast Center (NSSFC). Issued warnings and event reports are collected and processed prior to verification. As part of these preliminary procedures two products are routinely disseminated nationally via the AFOS network. A summary of severe local storm event reports received during the previous 24 hours (CCCSTADTS) Is prepared dally. Once each week, a summary (CCCSTAXXX) is prepared for each WSFO. This summary lists events and warnings processed during the previous week for all stations within the management area of that WSFO, Routine review of these messages by local offices will facilitate both local compilation of storm data and quality control of Information entering data bases maintained at the NSSFC. A thorough knowledge of preliminary verification procedures and routine use of these products, as presented in this report, can Insure greater accuracy of data and aid the WSFO In the preparation of "Storm Data and Unusual Weather Phenomena" (FORM F-8).
