This is not a weather bulletin meant for public consumption. It is a semi-formal "area forecast discussion"[1], aimed at other meteorologists.

Entirely depends on who is writing it. I like to read the forecast discussions because they tend to give more of the rationale for the forecast. You learn the thought process that goes into it, based on what they're seeing.

That said I'm also a trained severe weather spotter so the forecast discussion is where I go to see if spotter activation may be likely or not.

I've found one benefit to reading the bulletins is they give context to how they are generating weather probabilities. They may say there's a 50% change of rain 5 days from now, but then you learn this is because computer model "A" says 100% chance of rain, while computer model "B" says 0% chance, so they split the difference. Or maybe they say chance of rain is 80%, because model "B" is often off in this specific weather scenario.

It's also fun when some major storm is coming in and they are like "PWAT values are over 2 inches... this is historic!"

I thoroughly enjoy the PNW forecast discussions. They feel so human compared to other area discussions I've perused.

I live in SF. I'm from Florida. I was impressed.

Impressed compared to the craziness that is the southeast's weather we all know and love/hate when the elements decide to spice things up, or compared to the usual bay area fare?

It was impressive by Florida lightning-capital-of-the-world standards. I don't have any SF Bay Area standards for lightning storms. I think I heard more lightning last night than in the ten years before that.
