What the snapshot shows

As of November 7, 2026, 23:29 UTC, the National Weather Service feed contained 275 unexpired alert records. Its source update was November 7, 2026, 23:25 UTC. The severity fields recorded 0 Extreme, 41 Severe, 52 Moderate, 182 Minor, and 0 Unknown records. These are messages for defined areas, not separate storms or a count of people affected.

The source labels these messages Actual, meaning they are operational alerts rather than tests or exercises. That status does not mean that forecast conditions have already happened.

The most frequent event labels in this snapshot were Small Craft Advisory: 155; Gale Warning: 24; Flood Warning: 12; Frost Advisory: 12. Repeated labels can cover different zones or issuing offices. Several messages may concern the same weather system, and one record can cover several named areas. The graphic counts messages as reported, without adding together populations or treating an advisory as a confirmed incident.

Read the time and the place together

An alert can already be issued while the conditions it concerns are expected later. The sent time identifies the message; its onset and ending fields describe the source’s stated period when supplied. The expiry is the lifetime of that message, which can differ from the ending time. This report keeps those labels separate. It does not convert an expected event into an observation that it has happened.

The records below are ordered by the source severity field, then by issuance time, and show the first six. That order helps find the higher severity labels without assigning a new forecast. Check the named area against your own location, and open the source message for its complete description, instructions, revisions, and cancellations. A national summary cannot replace a local warning.

Where to check the latest warning

Weather.gov provides the current hazards map and local forecast search. Official alerts can update between this site’s scheduled refreshes. Use NOAA Weather Radio, Wireless Emergency Alerts, your local weather office, and local emergency officials for time-sensitive decisions. This saved report is background reading and cannot deliver an emergency notification.

The updater uses the NWS Actual feed, excludes expired messages and cancellations, and removes returned messages that an update or cancellation explicitly replaces. It preserves the last validated snapshot if a request fails. A retained report keeps its recorded times. Unknown severity remains unknown, and a valid empty response is never described as a guarantee of safe weather. The source messages and the NWS service documentation are linked below.
