I tend to pay attention to these things since I do live in a high traffic area for hurricanes. They (weather services as a collective) have been saying this literally every year for at least a decade. Additionally Accuweather has to be one of the worst weather services I have ever used for what it is worth. I’m personally going to file this one under fear porn from an irrelevant forecasting service that is trying to bait clicks for advertising revenue.
So many astute posts on here realizing what is happening. It is all about maximizing revenue and has almost nothing to do with approximately informing the public.
Truth. They've been predicting afternoon thunderstorms, which we desperately need, for over a month. Not a drop.
