Description

We use our social media to alert riders to irregular but semi-common events like extreme weather (heat waves, heavy rain, ice), road/bridge closures (Fleet Week, major construction, etc), and major events (Rose Festival, PDXWLF). It could be useful to bring that info into the calendar so that those alerts are closer to the source and more readily discovered. For example, admins could write some sort of object that's available to clients and conditionally displayed based on date. This could be accomplished anywhere on the spectrum from mostly ad-hoc files added manually to the repo to database-ified highly structured data available via API.

Research direction

Start by defining how date-based alerts should be represented and whether they belong in repository files, a database, or an API. Review the calendar's admin and client entry points, then establish how an alert is created, exposed to clients, conditionally displayed by date, and maintained for the listed event types.
