Which wouldn't be so annoying except that, up to a few years ago, this would be a 'winter weather warning'. Not nearly so dramatic, just "We're going to get some snow, so keep an eye on the weather and be careful."
In warm weather this has become "Severe storms expected tomorrow!" Except when you check there's a slight chance in one part of the state, a long way from here.
This is annoying, and it scares people.

I think it's the local weather geeks on TV chumming the water looking for folks to tune in. Gotta get the ratings. They do the same shit here.

Yup, weatherman version of clickbait.
Plus, as an added bonus, they get to wax hysterical about global warming, which, as you know, is the source of all weather events from drought to floods, from heat waves to cold snaps. I even read somewhere that it causes earthquakes and crime and probably tooth decay.
