NOAA's National Weather Service (NWS) Tsunami Warning Centers (TWCs) in Palmer, AK, and Honolulu, HI, are enhancing their services to better warn coastal communities about tsunami threats. They are installing common operating platforms for seamless backup and failover. In response to recent domestic tsunami events and partner needs, the NWS is redesigning its Impact-based Decision Support Services (IDSS) to provide modern and accessible tools for quick decision-making.A transformation roadmap is in place to implement phased approaches for new and enhanced services. A key development is the Common Analytic System (CAS), which will bring both TWCs to a similar readiness level for all tsunami events. CAS will provide visualization tools for deterministic and ensemble tsunami modeling outputs, allowing both centers to view, assess, and alert based on the same information simultaneously. This system will serve as a baseline for future updates, enhanced tools, and probabilistic hazard information from both TWC staff and academic contributors.
