Many types of weather information are needed from storm spotters; however, some types of information are much more important than others. Strict adherence to the reporting criteria allows vital information to be communicated as soon as possible. Also, some of the reporting criteria should receive higher priority communication than others. You should report the following weather events.

Urgent Priority

Tornado

Funnel cloud

Rotating wall cloud

Flash flooding

High Priority

Hail 3/4-inch diameter or larger

Wind speed greater than 58 mph

Persistent non-rotating wall cloud

Rainfall 1 inch or more per hour
