\u201cWhat is the difference between isolated storms and scattered storms?\u201d<\/p>\n
Isolated and scattered both refer to areal coverage.\u00a0 Isolated refers to hit and miss.\u00a0 We don\u2019t expect that many storms.\u00a0 That might equate to a 20-30% chance for rain at any one location.<\/p>\n
Scattered would indicate a better chance for storms.\u00a0 Rain chances would be between 40-60%.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The other category would be numerous.\u00a0 When we forecast numerous thunderstorms, the radar should be pretty full.<\/p>\n
