We had a storm that passed through AZ on Mon and Tue that was generating that kind of hype. "Weather Alert"s every 15 min. Granted, it was a good sized weather system that brought some much needed moisture to the region. But, all of the hype was just a bit over the top. Last night I watched 15 min. of a half-hour newscast devoted "Storm Coverage". What it really amounted to was the fact that it rained a few inches in some locations and snowed a few feet on the tops of the mountains. I think the effect is brought on by what is called a "slow news day".
