Timely and well-organised communication of severe weather, tailored to the needs of a diverse customer and audience base, is now recognised as perhaps the most important element of the modern forecasting process.

This session looks to identify best practise in severe weather communication through examples from real severe weather events. These case studies have shaped the strategies employed by meteorological and hydrological organisations to ensure that forecasts are understood and appropriate action is taken by end-users.
