• Locationpresent25/25

  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

  0 of 25 passes found G present (0 present / 25 absent). Recipients are not given a protective instruction; they are told no action is needed if needed later.

  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.

  See all 25 individual reads

  1. absent: Clause "if any action is needed" postpones guidance and gives no protective instruction now.
  2. absent: This wording says updates will come if action is needed and never directs recipients to take a protective step.
  3. absent: Absent because monitoring and later updates if action is needed are not a protective instruction now.
  4. absent: The guidance is missing; a promise of later updates if action is needed gives no protective steps now.
  5. absent: The text says action may come later and gives no current protective steps.
  6. absent: Omits a protective step, noting only that updates will follow if action is needed.
  7. absent: this text says updates will come if action is needed and never gives a protective instruction

  11. absent: Recipients are not told to take any protective step, only that later updates will come if action is needed.
  12. absent: Monitoring because the office only promises later updates if action is needed and gives no protective step now.

  14. absent: Emergency Management will keep watching and send updates later, but readers are not told to take a protective action.

  16. absent: Continued monitoring and possible later updates are not a protective instruction to the community.

  18. absent: A promise of later updates if action is needed is not a protective instruction cue for recipients now.
  19. absent: Coding guidance absent because monitoring and later updates if action is needed never instruct the community to take a protective step.
  20. absent: Staff saying they will monitor and update later if action is needed does not instruct recipients to do anything now.
  21. absent: On this pass the community is told no action is needed yet, only that updates will follow if action is required.
  22. absent: Emergency Management will monitor and send updates if action is needed, which is staff process, not a protective order to readers (a 1 would say stay away or close windows).
  23. absent: Nothing directs the community to evacuate, shelter, avoid, or take any protective action now.
  24. absent: Staff will keep watching and may send updates later if action is needed. That is not a protective instruction for people to follow now.
  25. absent: Readers are told updates will come if action is needed, which is not a protective order to follow now, so the vote is absent
• Timeabsent12/25

  Final assessment

  12 of 25 passes found T present (12 present / 13 absent). 12 of 25 treated monitor/currently as time; majority did not.

  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.

  See all 25 individual reads

  2. absent: This wording has no clock time, calendar date, or the cues now, today, or immediately.

  4. present: The time cue is currently, marking both awareness of the fire and its present threat status.
  5. present: Currently signals present timing for both awareness and the fire threat status.
  6. absent: Omits any clock time, calendar date, now, today, or immediately cue.

  11. present: Recipients are told the situation is currently known and currently not a campus threat, a now timing cue.
  12. absent: Present because currently is not a clock, a date, or the words now, today, or immediately.
  13. absent: A clock, calendar date, or the words now, today, or immediately never appear, and currently is not on that list.
  14. present: Currently is used for awareness and for the fire not being a campus threat, which serves as a now marker.
  15. absent: From the wording the text lacks a clock, date, now, today, or immediately cue.
  16. present: Currently is the timing word for present awareness and for the fire not threatening campus.
  17. absent: Here currently appears, but the text has no clock, date, now, today, or immediately cue.

  19. absent: Coding time absent because currently is not a clock, date, now, today, or immediately cue.
  20. present: Currently marks the fire and the campus-risk status as happening now.
  21. absent: On this pass currently is not a clock, date, now, today, or immediately marker.
  22. present: Currently twice marks the fire as present, which functions as a now timing cue (a 0 would insist on the literal word now, today, or a clock).
  23. absent: Nothing uses a clock time, a calendar date, or the words now, today, or immediately.
  24. present: The word currently works like now. It marks the fire update as happening at this moment.
  25. absent: Currently appears, but that word is not a clock, date, now, today, or immediately cue, so the vote is absent
• Impactabsent3/25

  Final assessment

  3 of 25 passes found I present (3 present / 22 absent). Not currently a threat denies rather than states impact.

  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.

  See all 25 individual reads

  1. absent: Clause "not currently a threat" denies campus harm beyond naming the fire.
  2. present: This wording judges that the fire is not a threat to campus, which is a severity and consequence statement rather than the hazard name alone.
  3. present: Present because the fire is judged not a threat to campus, a severity call beyond the fire name.
  4. present: The impact is an explicit severity finding that the fire is not a threat to campus, beyond the fire name.
  5. absent: The fire is explicitly not a campus threat and no other severity is given.
  6. absent: Lacks a described harm or severity and says the fire is not a threat to campus.
  7. absent: this text says the fire is not a threat to campus and adds no extra severity
  8. absent: Damage, injuries, or a threat to campus would have counted; the fire name alone is not severity, and the text says it is not a threat to campus.
  9. absent: I read that the fire is not a threat to campus, which denies impact rather than stating a consequence or severity.
  10. absent: Does not count as consequence or severity because the fire is said not to threaten campus and no burn damage or injuries are described.
  11. absent: Recipients are told the fire is not a threat to campus, so no consequence or severity beyond the fire name is given.
  12. absent: Denial because the fire is said not to threaten campus, and no harm or damage is described.
  13. absent: A statement of harm, damage, or campus danger is missing, and the fire is said not to threaten campus.
  14. absent: Vegetation fire is the hazard label, and the note even denies that campus is threatened.
  15. absent: From the wording the fire is said not to be a threat to campus, so no consequence or severity is given.
  16. absent: The fire is expressly not a threat to campus, so no severity or harm is claimed.
  17. absent: Here the fire is called not a threat to campus, so no consequence or severity is given beyond the hazard name.
  18. absent: The fire is said not to threaten campus, so no harm or severity cue exists beyond the hazard name.
  19. absent: Coding impact absent because the fire is said not to be a threat to campus and no damage or injury is described.
  20. absent: Saying the fire is not a threat to campus does not describe injury, damage, or other consequences.
  21. absent: On this pass the fire is said not to be a threat to campus, so no consequence or extra severity is given.
  22. absent: The fire is not currently a threat to campus, so no harm or severity of the blaze is claimed (a 1 would treat the word threat as impact even when denied).
  23. absent: Nothing describes damage, injury, or other consequence, and vegetation fire is only the hazard name.
  24. absent: Naming the fire is the hazard. Saying it is not a threat to campus does not describe harm, damage, or any other consequence.
  25. absent: The fire is called not a threat to campus, with no harm or severity described, so the vote is absent
