NGCP warns which color alert if a tropical disturbance is expected to make landfall within 24 hours?

• A. Red
• B. Blue
• C. Green
• D. Yellow

Answer: (B)

Color-coded alerts are used to quickly communicate forecast timing and needed actions for protecting the power grid. When a tropical disturbance is expected to make landfall within 24 hours, a Blue alert is issued. This signals operators to heighten monitoring, coordinate with field crews, secure critical assets, and prepare for possible impacts on transmission. Green generally means normal conditions with no imminent threat, Yellow indicates an early warning with potential impact, and Red denotes a more severe or imminent condition requiring urgent action.
