Hmmm, I just thought Cortana was just really paranoid about fire.
I'm in Phoenix, and these 'pings' are really getting annoying when I was out and about. I just got home and checked the National Weather Service, and yep. They've issued 2, count them, TWO warnings today. But Cortana just keeps 'pinging' away about every 20-30 minutes. (aaa crap, another one just now).
Now I do like to know about these warnings. Especially during the Monsoon, when we get some incredible downpours. So I would like to continue getting these alerts, just not constantly. And it would be nice to be able when I tap on the alert in the action center, it brings up the details of the alert, not just to her simple 5 day outlook.
Actually I just realized that the new Bing Weather app isn't showing the alerts like it used to. From there I could tap and get the detailed info.
