Bulletins
What the valley should know.
Advisories are issued by the duty forecaster and stand until withdrawn. Everything below is fictional, written for the demo.
Strong wind watch
Friday afternoon · Point Brace coast
Southwest gusts to 65 km/h possible along the Brace peninsula as the low passes south of the coast.
All clear
Elsewhere · Kestrel Valley
No other advisories. The synoptic chart shows a quiet ridge parked over the valley through midweek.
Method
How a bulletin gets issued
Two forecasters read the synoptic chart together. If they disagree, they read it a third time with tea. Only a bullet both can sign leaves the building.
A bulletin carries its own expiry. Nothing stays live past the hour it names, and the ledger records when each one was withdrawn as well as when it was raised.
