Actually, airports have to contact the NWS office serving them to request these Airport Weather Warnings. The management at those airports must create their own list of warning criteria in a written agreement with the NWS office before it goes into effect. I don't think the list of those doing it is that long though. I have a feeling only the major airports take advantage of this service as you still have the regular forecast and headline products along with TAFs (text aviation forecasts).
