The NWS has posted the draft document National Weather Service
"Weather-Ready Nation Roadmap" for public comment through July

The NWS Strategic Plan, "Building a Weather-Ready Nation,"
published in 2011, anticipates the services needed by our
increasingly weather-sensitive society for the next two decades,
projects what science and technology may provide to meet these
needs, and creates an unconstrained vision for a Weather-Ready
Nation. Version one of the "Weather-Ready Nation Roadmap" is our
first public draft of steps needed to make this vision a reality.
The document comprises four plans: Services, Workforce, Science
and Technology, and Business. These plans are critical elements
serving as inputs for the upcoming implementation effort.
The NWS will revise the "Weather-Ready Nation Roadmap" over time
to include feedback from both internal and external stakeholders.
We also remain committed to open dialogue every time we propose
specific changes in our products and services.
