It differs depending where you are. Some places even use a different color code. Way back when I worked at Sam's Club the codes were; Black:Dangerous weather or blackout, Red:Fire, Orange:Chemical spill, Blue:Medical emergency, Brown:Bomb threat, Code Adam was a missing child- and so on and so on. The procedures differ as well. It's funny, if you're in Sam's Club and you hear "Code Black" you're going to remember that show and run out of the building and probably into a tornado or something.
