Does LWX ever do anything other than yuge warnings?

I think it kinda sucks but a NWS met was talking about warning maintanence the other day and how it's hard to keep up with a half dozen vs 2. NWS needs an overhaul in how it's put together probably to solve some of these issues. And that's an issue that always gets attacked when brought up.

Man...that storms in NoVA is going to do some damage with that type of wind. Wonder if it can hold strength. 

Seems a bit bullish on speeds but only radarscope here so shrug.

Standard practice all around the country now.

Yeah it seems more common lately.. which of course goes against storm based warnings and the FACETS work in the background. But no one ever claimed NWS made a lot of sense. Supposedly partly staffinf issues.
