Short summary
Warnings have become a standard product in meteorological centres since they help the public prevent major disasters and minimize costs or losses. They happen rarely and add a new temporal dimension, namely the time window of the forecasted event. Thus, specific verification methods are required to verify warnings. This paper analyses the warning verification issues and includes a real life example, the verification of wind gust warnings at the German Meteorological Centre (Deutscher Wetterdienst).
