For weather storms what is the difference between an Advisory, Watch, and Warning?

Advisory- Means just a weather statement that bad weather could happen but doesn't fit "severe weather" cateria

Watch- Means conditions are favourable for a storm to occur (blizzard, snowfall, winds, rainfall, thunderstorm, tornado)

Warning- Means that severe weather is imminent or already occurring..

It is self explanatory if you think about it.

Advisory that bad weather might happen. It's not going to happen right away but you need to be aware and get prepared.

Watch the weather. Look outside and see what is happening. Bad weather is imminent so watch for it.

Warning there is bad weather happening right now in your area. Take shelter right now.

Advisory - Highlights special weather conditions that are less serious than a warning. They are for events that may cause significant inconvenience, and if caution is not exercised, it could lead to situations that may threaten life and/or property.

Watch - used when the risk of a hazardous weather or hydrologic event has increased significantly, but its occurrence, location, and/or timing is still uncertain. It is intended to provide enough lead time so that those who need to set their plans in motion can do so.

Warning - issued when a hazardous weather or hydrologic event is occurring, is imminent, or has a very high probability of occurring. A warning is used for conditions posing a threat to life or property.
