Severe thunderstorm warning with hardtop-vehicle shelter for main campus

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.

  Final assessment

  Present at 18 of 25. Most reads accepted the named FAMU campus as identifying the issuing university, but seven noted that nothing states who actually sent this notification.

  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.

  Final assessment

  Present, unanimously at 25 of 25. The opening sentence names a Severe Thunderstorm Warning, so the threat is specific rather than generic.

  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, unanimously at 25 of 25. The affected area is given as the FAMU Main Campus plus the areas surrounding it.

  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.

  Final assessment

• Timepresent25/25

  Final assessment

  Present, unanimously at 25 of 25. "right away" makes the required action immediate and "has been issued" presents the warning as currently in force.

• Impactabsent5/25

  Final assessment

  Absent at 5 of 25. The alert names the storm but stops short of saying what harm it could cause, cutting off at "stay away from op"; five reads counted the shelter standard as implied severity.

  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.
