Since you apparently don't know the meaning of the word "possible," let's walk through this slowly:

For any major weather event, there are going to be a range of possible outcomes. With a storm of this complexity, those outcomes are even more uncertain. A "worst-case" scenario may have a low probability, but you still have to prepare for it because if it catches you with your pants down, you're screwed.

If the worst-case scenario is, say, 10% probable, you can go through 10 of those and it will only happen once. When it doesn't happen, mathematically illiterate idiots like you say, "See, I was right not to evacuate!" or "Media hype!" or "Psyops! THEY wanted us to think it would be worse!"

The tenth time, of course, your pathetic ass is on the phone begging the fire department to come rescue you, and blaming everyone for not warning you harder.

Rinse, repeat.
