north pgh Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Good Morning America was way over the top, Sam Champion repeating derecho and a graphic with the text "60 million people facing damaging winds" I am really sick of the hyping of weather events done by the ratings-starved media. Yesterday a story was going around on facebook from a media source saying that Pittsburgh could see 100 mph winds today. I had people tell me that businesses were discussing letting people go home from work early today. I saw TWC this morning using terms "Dangerous and Fierce Severe Storms." Aren't severe storms always dangerous for somebody? I saw "Dangerous Winds" and "Dangerous Heat". In the 1970 and 80's when the temperature got to 90 the terms were "Hazy Hot and Humid". "Drink lots of water and stay in the air conditioning". Now 90 degree weather is "dangerous", "life threatening etc" This is not a hurricane and this is not Oklahoma City. Now it looks like western Pa. will see possible severe weather weather after 8:00 tonight and no different from any other severe weather event. Social media is making it worse because facebook users and twitter users are now making reports and treated the same as skywarn spotters and they have no weather experience. It looks like the "Weenies" have taken over and the hype will continue. Sorry but I needed to vent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sauss06 Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 As of now, i think the flash flooding will be our biggest concern here in the H-Burg area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wmsptwx Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Yeah, there may be some ponding and runoff...but the ground can probably take an inch or two with little to no problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wmsptwx Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 There is literally disappointment that it may not be as bad as previously thought in the Mid Atlantic thread. I guess the models are trending away from a major event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's fairly safe to say that those north of the turnpike will see primarily rain. Points south, specifically closer to the mason-dixon have a far greater chance of severe wx.

Wmsptwx Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Luckily 12z caved from it's frightening solution, to what will probably be a slight risk at the next update. All models staying progressive with no real deepening to speak of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
