I know it's very uncool to have a whinge about the fire services after their recent sterling efforts, but I have to confess the warning level called "Watch and Act" annoys me a bit. Am I supposed to Watch, or Act? If I'm watching, I'm not acting.
Its a tough one, if you say "watch then act" you might be encouraging people to act when not required. Implying you must act. "Watch and act if required" is probably too wordy to cut through as intended.
