This is a documentation subpage for Template:Infobox weather event/NWS.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Usage

This subbox provides a meteorological data subbox based on the National Weather Service scale, which uses the Saffir–Simpson scale.

This subbox relies on the meta-template Template:Infobox weather event/SSHWS, which in turn relies on the meta-template Template:Infobox weather event/scale.

{{Infobox weather event/NWS
| winds = 150
| gusts = 175
| pressure = 902
}}

{{Infobox weather event/NWS
| winds = 45
| gusts = 55
| pressure = 989
}}

TemplateData

A subbox for displaying meteorological information for a storm according to data from the National Weather Service (NWS). Should be used adjacent to an 'Infobox weather event' template, and before an 'Infobox weather event/Footer' template.

Template parameters
This template prefers block formatting of parameters.
Parameter		Description	Type	Status
Child display?	`child`	Whether this is a child box or not. Use `yes`, unless you're using this box standalone. Default yes Example yes	Boolean	optional
Body style	`bodystyle`	Custom CSS for the box Default border-collapse: collapse	String	optional
Maximum sustained winds	`winds`	The maximum sustained winds of a given storm. Not to be confused with maximum wind gusts (provided with "gusts"). Supply value in knots. Example 124	Number	suggested
Maximum winds prefix	`winds-prefix`	Prefix for the maximum sustained winds. Use this to add approximation symbols, such as '~', '<', or '>'. Example ~	String	optional
Maximum winds suffix	`winds-suffix`	Suffix for the maximum sustained winds. Use this to add references, footnotes, or other content.	Content	optional
Maximum wind gust	`gusts`	The maximum wind gust of a given storm. Not to be confused with maximum sustained winds (provided with "winds"). Supply value in knots. Example 164	Number	suggested
Maximum gusts prefix	`gusts-prefix`	Prefix for the maximum wind gusts. Use this to add approximation symbols, such as '~', '<', or '>'. Example ~	String	optional
Maximum gusts suffix	`gusts-suffix`	Suffix for the maximum wind gusts. Use this to add references, footnotes, or other content.	Content	optional
Beaufort scale	`beaufort-scale` `beaufort scale`	The maximum sustained winds on the Beaufort scale. Rarely used except for historical storms; consider using "winds" instead.	Number	optional
Lowest pressure	`pressure`	Lowest pressure, usually measured near the storm's center. Supply value in hectopascals/millibars (hPa/mbar). Example 975	Number	suggested
Lowest pressure prefix	`pressure-prefix`	Prefix for the pressure. Use this to add approximation symbols, such as '~', '<', or '>'. Example ~	String	optional
Lowest pressure suffix	`pressure-suffix`	Suffix for the lowest pressure. Use this to add references, footnotes, or other content.	Content	optional
Category only?	`categoryonly`	Only return the category of this storm as a string. Useful if you only want the category of a storm based on meteorological data, but not the actual box itself. Default no	Boolean	optional
