Winter weather FAQ

What counts as a winter storm event here?

StormTracking clusters active National Weather Service winter products — Winter Storm Warnings, Blizzard Warnings, Ice Storm Warnings, Winter Weather Advisories, Freeze and Frost products — into regional events, each tracked on its own page from first alert to expiration.

How current is this page?

Data refreshes from the NWS alert feed every 10 minutes, around the clock. Each event page shows the alerts in effect right now and the states they cover.

What is the difference between a winter storm watch and warning?

A watch means significant winter weather is possible, typically within 48 hours — prepare. A warning means it is expected or occurring — act. Advisories cover lesser but still disruptive conditions.
