Severe weather risk
What do the CPS risk levels mean?
The Storm Prediction Center (SPC) classifies severe weather risk into five levels. Each indicates the
probability and intensity of phenomena such as tornadoes, hail or strong winds. This scale is updated daily
and helps the population to prepare in advance for hazardous events.
| Level | Name | SPC Color | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Marginal | Green | Isolated thunderstorms, not very intense. |
| 2 | Slight | Yellow | Moderate risk of hail or strong winds. |
| 3 | Enhanced | Orange | More organized and intense storms. |
| 4 | Moderate | Red | High risk: large hail or strong tornadoes possible. |
| 5 | High | Fuccia | Extreme risk of widespread severe events and violent tornadoes. |
