After this recent debacle, I will believe it when I see it. I have the sprinkler running after the forecasted inch of rain ended up less than a tenth.

Rainfall total forecasting just as bad as snowfall forecasting in the winter.  

Can't complain too much here with .43 last 24 hours.  WPC did better than Mount Holly with QPF forecasts.

Pretty much sums up the Nina precip pattern.

KEY MESSAGE 2...Additional chances for much-needed rain arrive
during the middle of this week.

A brief period of high pressure on Monday, potentially lingering
into Tuesday. A weak frontal boundary then approaches the
region late Tuesday, bringing a chance for light rain. The
chances for meaningful rainfall with this system appear to be
decreasing with high pressure staying close by and the frontal
boundary largely washing out across the region. Another
stronger low is still expected to arrive late Wednesday into
early Thursday that is expected to bring more widespread
showers and perhaps an isolated thunderstorm across the region.

They should acknowledge their forecast bust. It was certainly noteworthy.

Could be a blip but 18z gfs looks better midweek for many. I don’t know anything about the RDPS but the gfs kind of has the same look of what Will posted earlier
