After calling the API to get Severe Weather Alerts, the json result has a level field, such as EXT, STD, what do these values mean? Is there a complete list of level fields?

    Hi PSJ,

    This API comes from Accuweather and their docs say the string can be null. See their third party site https://apidev.accuweather.com/developers/alertsApiParameters

    I would guess that STD is the first report of an alert and EXT is an extension of an existing Alert but I can't find any specific documentation on that. Probably the body of the Alert Text will clarify.

    Sincerely,

    IoTGirl
