Description:

We would like to propose the establishment of a winter storm severity index for the National Weather Service. Presently, there is no system to compare the severity of one storm to another. By establishing an easy step by-step method to determine a severity index to each storm, NWS offices could rank each storm and compare them with previous storms.
