Winter Weather Quick Response Surveys

The Winter Weather Quick Response Survey Data Collection is a multi year, multi event database that aims to improve understanding of how different factors interact to influence people’s perception of and response to winter weather threats. Post event surveys gather detailed data on how environmental conditions, warning information sources and channels, social cues, prior experience, vulnerability characteristics, and situational constraints combine to shape individual preparedness and protective action decisions as the hazard unfolds. Surveys were disseminated in collaboration with 3 participating National Weather Service Forecast Offices between 2023 – 2025 representing 5 winter weather events. A total of 7,087 surveys were collected. Data included in the collection: a) Survey Flow Chart, b) Codebook, c) Data Collection Results available in CSV, (Stata and SPSS formats forthcoming), and data collection notes.
