Alerts?
The Wroxall Weather forecast team will issue watches and alerts whenever the weather is likely to meet a set out criteria. Watches are issued, usually in advance of warnings to give an indication that severe weather is possible. Once within a more certain timeframe, if necessary, a warning will be issued. At the closest range, flash alerts may be issued to warn of severe weather that may occur within a few hours.
