WATCH vs. WARNING: With Sourdough Bread!
Not sure what the difference is?
Let’s explain it using something tasty... sourdough bread.
WATCH: Conditions are favorable for a storm to develop. It’s like when you’ve just mixed your sourdough ingredients, and the dough is rising. You’re not baking yet, but you know something might be coming. It’s time to keep an eye on things, review your emergency plan, and be prepared just in case.
WARNING: Your sourdough is in the oven, the heat is on, and there’s no turning back. You need to take action immediately.
