Yeah it’s already being taken less seriously online. They too are seeing the H and questioning the seriousness. They aren’t reading the discussion. At least one media guy has latched on to this too.
It’s a little trippy to see Wral saying 2-5 and stating models saying it could be more. Add the NWS saying 3.8 (3-5). I’m used to seeing conservative numbers until they have to increase them.
I think that since this, a lot of things changed. The tv mets have changed their thinking from this idea above to what the NWS and other private mets/hobbyists are thinking and that’s a central NC and eastward storm. But, we will see.
Well, I think for many we worry now about how even if it ends with plain rain, in many cases the damage could already have been done. The wind is a factor. Allan put out his map a few mins ago.
