When my icon changes color (i.e. when a severe alert is found), I often have trouble remembering if it's an alert or if it's because of the temperature variation...

This suggestion is to offer an option to provide some sort of tray icon animation when a weather alert is found. Even simply alternating between two (configurable) colors would be nice.

Not just because one idiot confuses the meaning of colors, but because it makes alerts stand out more...
