Subject:  Release of The Weather-Ready Nation Roadmap 2.0
          on April 24, 2013

On April 24, 2013, NOAAs National Weather Service, in
partnership with the NWS Employees Organization (NWSEO),
released The Weather-Ready Nation Roadmap 2.0.  The updated
Roadmap blends an understanding of social and physical sciences
and lends itself to building community resilience in the face
of increasing vulnerability to extreme weather and water
events.
After achieving the goals of the Weather-Ready Nation Roadmap,
NWS will empower the entire weather enterprise to include
emergency managers, first responders, government officials, the
private sector, and the public to make faster, smarter decisions
to save lives and protect livelihoods.  We will be unable to
attain these goals without our key stakeholder and partner support.

The WRN Roadmap 2.0 incorporates comments from the 2012
National Academy of Sciences study, NWS Employees Organization,
NOAA and NWS leadership, and the public.  The Roadmap
document can be found posted at the following link:
