High wind warning with possible gusts up to 65 mph

To check this alert, Claude Opus 5 (an AI) read it in full 25 separate times, independently. Each read decided whether the message answers each of the six questions and gave a short reason. A final reviewer then weighed all 25 and wrote the plain-English verdict you see when you open a row. The score (for example 22/25) is how many reads agreed; the 25 individual reads are tucked underneath if you want to check them.

• Sourcepresent25/25

  Final assessment

  Present, and unanimously so at 25 of 25: the message opens with the branded tag "URGENT CU ALERT", which names Clemson's alerting system as the sender.

  Who is sending the alert and who is responding. People act faster on a message from a clearly identifiable, credible sender, such as a named department, the police, or a branded alert system, than on an anonymous notice. A branded signature counts.

• Hazardpresent25/25

  Final assessment

  Present by a full 25 of 25: the threat is named outright, a "High Wind Warning has been issued", not a vague reference to bad weather.

  What the threat actually is. A complete warning names the specific danger, such as a shooter, a fire, a tornado, or a gas leak, rather than a vague emergency, because people decide what to do based on what they are facing.

• Locationpresent25/25

  Final assessment

  Present, 25 of 25 with no dissent, because the warning is geographically scoped to "the Clemson area", naming the place under threat.

  Where the threat is. Saying whether danger is in a specific building, a part of campus, or area-wide lets people judge their own proximity and choose a safe direction. Without a where, a warning is hard to act on precisely.

• Guidanceabsent0/25

  Final assessment

  Absent, and the reads were unanimous at 0 of 25: nothing after "Possible gusts up to 65 mph" tells recipients to stay indoors, avoid trees, or take any other protective step.

  The protective action to take. A clear, specific instruction, such as shelter in place, evacuate, avoid the area, or run-hide-fight, drives faster and more correct protective behavior than describing the threat alone.

• Timepresent25/25

  Final assessment

  Present with 25 of 25 agreement: the warning is explicitly bounded, running "until 7:45 am", which gives recipients an expiry for the threat window.

  When the message applies. A timestamp, the word now or immediately, or a phrase like until further notice tells the reader whether the danger is current and how quickly to act.

• Impactpresent25/25

  Final assessment

  Present, 25 of 25, since "Possible gusts up to 65 mph" puts a number on how forceful the wind may become, conveying the severity at stake.

  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.
