Active tsunami messages (NTWC + PTWC) API

Latest tsunami bulletins from both US NOAA tsunami warning centers — NTWC (Palmer, AK) and PTWC (Honolulu, HI) — parsed from their atom feeds into clean records with a derived threat level (WARNING/ADVISORY/WATCH/INFORMATION/CANCELLATION), message type, event location, issue time and bulletin link, plus an activeThreat flag. The MORE is merging both centers and classifying threat level from the bulletin type. Answers 'is there an active tsunami warning?', 'latest tsunami bulletin for the Pacific?', 'was a tsunami advisory cancelled?'.
