Spacewx Alert Monitor

The purpose of this website is to track SAM (SpaceWx Alert Monitor) watches, warnings, advisories, and alarms. The brief "Alerts" are only updated in the event of a noteworthy occurrence. Every five minutes, the more thorough "Status" notifications are refreshed. Plots are updated approximately every 100 seconds to allow for the monitoring of real-time operations.
