I don't know if ATIS has updated the CMAS standards or the IPAWS software 
has added the new FCC EAS weather codes.

I didn't include any of the weather related codes, such as TOR-Tornado 
Warning, because in the CMAS world those are only issued by NWS; not 
local emergency management agencies. The CAP alert origination software 
I've seen for local emergency managers don't have (or greyed out/not 
selectable) the weather EAS codes.

NWS announced operational use of the new codes is planned for the 2017 
hurricane season through Weather Radio and EAS.  However, not all SAME/EAS 
codes are transmitted through WEA.  I haven't found any information on 
the NWS web site whether EWW, SSA or SSW will be transmitted through WEA.
