Would it be possible for to post a list of the possible NOAA categories, severity levels, and urgency levels in the wiki if you have this info available (or can get it) so these values can be used in scripts/automations? I have searched high and low and can't seem to locate this information on the NOAA website.

This information would be very helpful to determine if an alert should be waking me up at 4am. The availability of this data what sets this sensor apart from the other NWS web based sensor. It would be nice to be able to take advantage of it.
