Description:This report synthesizes priorities for NOAA modernization of Tropical Cyclone (TC) information and services by identifying and proposing strategies to address gaps between the NWS TC Product Suite and its use by NWS partners. The project employed a mixed methods design, combining interviews and surveys of emergency managers and broadcast meteorologists, to integrate deep insights with broader perspectives. The resulting data were analyzed to understand how these NWS partners use TC information and make decisions throughout the lifespan of TC threats, and how well current NWS TC information and services support their decisions. We then built on these findings, in discussion with NOAA collaborators, to analyze unmet information needs, identify opportunities for improvement, and articulate recommendations for accelerating effective TC risk communication.
