Comment (by joedolson):

 While the use of the text that indicates how long an update has been
 available is helpful, I don't think it directly correlates to a sense of
 urgency. For experienced users, the amount of time between updates is a
 well known factor, and can be quickly correlated to urgency; but for
 people who don't understand software cycles well, I don't think it's very
 useful.

 For accessibility, the different colors should be explicitly associated
 with a word or icon, e.g. "Urgent:", "Warning:", etc.
