The ForcastFox plugin for firefox will show you any watches and warnings that pertain to your zip code. You just click on the alert icon that shows up next to your radar.
What the hell is RSS? Not that I haven't heard of it before but I can't find a decent explanation of what it is... Wikipedia just talks about the history and tosses around some Internet slang. If it's Web based, what's wrong with HTML or a text flatfile / table?

I wish they would put all of their products in RSS or at least in text form. I would like to be able to get the text weather report for the San Francisco Bay, but it seems as though I can only get it with a whole bunch of graphics around it (<a class="user" href="http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/total_forecast/marine.php?marine=pzz530),">http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/total_forecast/marine.php?marine=pzz530),</a> which is no good for my phone.

I use the NWS RSS feed on an HTML page on my website with Feed2JS (<a class="user" href="http://jade.mcli.dist.maricopa.edu/feed/index.php?s=download)">http://jade.mcli.dist.maricopa.edu/feed/index.php?s=download)</a> to display local weather conditions.

Forecasting from The Weather Channel tends to be a little more accurate, having done a significant amount of aggregation on the backend for you from WSI, The National Weather Service, NOAA, and a few that can't be mentioned here.
