Why isn't tomorrow's storm generating more buzz on here? 3-6 inches of rain can be catastrophic.

Because most of the models are showing anywhere from a quarter inch to half a foot. high bust potential

It's not generating buzz on any of the forums.

yeah it's not a widespread event-it's hit or miss for most of us

WPIX trying to increase their ratings or decrease them ?

I have no clue why they show these maps on TV. TV mets should be a little more responsible than Twitter "mets" and hypesters. Yet here we are.

And nam is mostly Wednesday morning

Which is obviously wrong. It continues to appear that there will be a smaller round for late morning and midday, and then the potential major round for early evening. We could get hit hard around 5 to 7pm, but we'll have to see if there's enough sunshine during the afternoon break to really fire up the atmosphere and increase the risk of the early evening storms being severe.

The futurecast is essentially useless at 36-48 hours. It's akin to a 120-hour NAM run (NAM ends at 84 hours, just so one has context for my analogy). Not surprisingly, last night's figures were dramatically lowered and are now in line with the guidance.
