Boaters: Should Small Craft Advisories be renamed?
Read full article: Boaters: Should Small Craft Advisories be renamed?The proposed new system would retain the Watch and Warning terms - but remove the Advisory term, since years of feedback has indicated that it is generally misunderstood. Instead, they would streamline all information that doesnt reach the Watch and Warning level into a single plain-language statement, with a few exceptions. One of these exceptions would include the Small Craft Advisory. So it is proposed that the Small Craft Advisory will now become a Small Craft Warning. This change would also align this product with all other marine Warnings so that the severity of all marine wind hazards is uniformly denoted by the first term within the headline (i.e., - Small Craft, Gale, Storm, and Hurricane Force Wind Warnings).
