Summary of Lightning Policy Changes ⚡️
We are updating how lightning policies are managed on the Perry Weather platform. To enhance consistency and create a single source of truth across large organizations, we are centralizing the management of lightning policies.
What's Changing? 🤔
- Previously: Individual users had the ability to add or edit their own lightning zones at the location level. This could lead to inconsistent standards across an organization.
-
Going Forward: When adding or editing a location, users will no longer see sliders to adjust lightning zones. Instead, they will simply select from a list of pre-configured policies that have been set by their organization's administrator.
What Action is Required? 📋
- For Admin-Set Policies: No action is needed. Any policies already set by your organization's administrator will be migrated automatically to ensure everyone is using the same standard.
- For User-Created Custom Zones: Please be aware that any custom lightning zones created by individual users—which were not locked by an account administrator—will be removed with this update.
Unlocking Future Enhancements (Coming Soon)
This consolidation is not just an organizational update; it allows us to build more powerful tools for you. This change will enable several new features coming soon, including:
- A redesigned administrator portal to manage all weather policies from one simple view.
- An enhanced historical data export feature, allowing users to track metrics like the total hours spent in a weather delay.
- The ability to trigger sirens based on any policy, including tornado warnings, WBGT and more.
You can expect to see the new lightning policy management system in your dashboard over the coming weeks.
Look for the new lightning policy management in your dashboard over the coming weeks. As always, thank you for your feedback, and we look forward to helping you make smarter, safer decisions.
