Thanks @StormyKnight17 I thought I would place a few examples down on how I used your template examples. It actually took me a number of years to find, as this post does not come up easily in Google Search. This post has been made to help others point to the closed Severe Weather Alert Issue #37
# Template Weather Warning Phase Text - Act as trigger for lovelace conditional card
Note: to prevent early execution of 'elif' statement:
- (new and renewal) may need to change to (new and wal). or just (new)
- (upgrade and downgrade) may need to change to (up and down) or just (grade)

THE SIX SENSORS BELOW MAKE ONE FULL WEATHER REPORT.
I did have it as one complete code in my configuration.yaml but it kept breaking, I had to divide it up. (obviously too long to parse)
Combining all templates in a Custom: Mushroom Template Card results in the below. This will parse as a complete code.
Card changes colour, Crimson for Major or Minor warning_group_type.
NOTE: sensor.text_dewpoint_comfort_outside is created using Weather Word Descriptions from Dew Point, Temperature, VOC & Tado (Simple Air Comfort Card)

For use in Node Red The state from the sensors below are recombined into the full weather report that can be sent to TTS.
NOTE: There is a 255 Character limit on the condition report. This will return 'unknown' if the state of the BOM Extended Text Weather Report exceeds this limit.
NOTE: The state from 'sensor.your_location_extended_text_0' has been split to two sensors at 230 characters each. This includes room for text prior the condition report.
