The logo features bold red uppercase text “NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE” arching around a central circular design: a stylized blue globe with segmented latitude lines, overlaid by a dark blue cumulonimbus cloud pierced by a white lightning bolt, and wavy blue lines suggesting atmospheric layers or oceans. Below the circle are three stars-two blue flanking one red-evoking the U.S. flag and federal authority. The design conveys urgency, scientific credibility, and national scope.
