Note
Only the countable noun takes this plural: each warning is counted as a separate notice or caution, as in storm warnings. The uncountable use, as in give fair warning or arrive without warning, has no plural. Nor do the other words spelled warning. The participle of warn (she is warning them) and the bare notice on a sign, Warning!, never add -s.
