  • Impactpresent23/25

    Final assessment

    Majority 23/25 codes 1: Suspects took "various electronics and a firearm" from multiple residences, and "FSUPD is actively investigating."

    What the hazard could do to the people in its path. Beyond naming the threat, a complete warning conveys its potential consequences or severity, such as that a tornado can level buildings or that a leak could be explosive, so recipients grasp how much danger they are in. Research on warning message content finds that a concrete impact statement helps people personalize their risk and act sooner.
