There was an early warning on Monday reissued on Tuesday. As far as I know
these are only issued once in any day so the timings would have to be for
the whole affected area including England etc , and only for large regions
of the country so anything in Kintyre or Girvan would colour the whole of
Strathclyde red. Flashes though are by "county" though of course even if
there had been a FLASH warning for Campbeltown it would still have turned
the whole of Argyll red


It was an 'early' to which I was referring, not a 'flash'.

'Earlies', certainly, are frequently updated to match changing
conditions.

I'm not really clear what your point is.
