Why your status is nothing active

Nothing official for your spot from the feeds that answered. We couldn't check the power outage feed just now, so treat that part as unknown.

How we set your status

ACT NOW
An official warning that means move now covers your spot. Tornado, flash flood, evacuation, shelter in place, hazmat.
PREPARE
Any other official warning or watch for your spot, or a big outage in your county (5% of customers or 5,000 homes).
WATCH
Advisories, outages over 1%, an M4.5+ quake within 250 miles, or a ground stop at an airport near you.
NOTHING ACTIVE
None of the feeds that answered has anything for your spot. Any feed that didn't answer shows as down, and if the weather feed is down your status is UNKNOWN.

Fixed rules on official data set your status. No AI decides it. Your phone's emergency alerts still come first for the spot you're standing on. Follow them and your local officials.
