I really don't get this.
In southern California, they typically start clogging the news with "STORM WATCH" nonsense whenever 0.5 inches of rain is forecasted.
Here a real badass storm is coming to town, and nobody seems to give a shit.
On Friday, February 17, the Los Angeles area is forecasted to get between 3 and 5 inches of rain.
How rare is this?
In the past 60 years, Los Angeles has seen 4.8 inches or more in a day only ONCE -- 5.55 inches in December 2004.
If the storm somehow drops more than 5.88 inches (keep in mind the forecast keeps increasing the amount of rain expected with each passing day), then it will be an all-time record.
We will likely see floods, death, destruction, etc.
For some reason, nobody gives a shit right now, perhaps because it was 73 degrees and sunny there today.
Feel free to bump this when it turns into an epic disaster, or if it peters out and nothing of note occurs.
