Watchbox warnings
Watchbox warnings provide area specific information of tornados and
thunderstorms. You can display a report of all current watchbox warnings.
These warnings show that a weather warning is in place for a specific area.
This area is defined by the warning itself.
In addition to the weather report, watchbox warnings can be shown in 2
ways:
• Automatically generated alert on receipt by the system and shown as a
pop up.
• by displaying any active watchboxes as a polygon on the weather map.
Automatic watchbox warning
With the watchbox option enabled, when a tornado, thunderstorm or
similar weather system warning is received a warning is automatically
generated and pops up on screen.
You can scroll through the report using the trackpad or rotary control.
This pop up will remain on screen until it is manually cleared.
