No active Met Dept warnings

The public advisory dashboard reports no active weather warnings for today.

Live Met Dept feeds only — Lankawa never fills this panel with curated seed warnings. Unavailable means the advisory API could not be reached; empty means the dashboard reports no active hazards.
