Description:This researchers of this project propose to (1) explore how organizational and individual differences among city and county emergency managers (EMs) might influence how they use NWS IDSS information and convey it to other officials in their jurisdictions, and (2) further develop the NWS Amarillo Integrated Warning Team (IWT) “Pod” methodology. The IWT Pod is an exercise in which EMs and other key decision-makers work together through a simulated severe weather event. The overall aim of the proposed research is to provide a better understanding of how EMs interact with IDSS information and the means (a method) through which NWS Weather Forecast Offices can discover how to improve their IDSS services. Specifically, the knowledge gained from this research will help WFOs design more effective IDSS products that better meet the decision needs of EMs and other core partners in local jurisdictions. This will help officials make more cost-efficient preparation decisions and lower the overall economic impact of severe weather.
