Possibly the watches are now broadcasted by everyone and their dog and that's what's different but seems like overkill to read about flood watches 4 or 5 times in a day because there's a chance of 15mm of rain.

It's not a flood watch, though. It's a high stream flow advisory, which is below flood watch. And this is the time of year there will be lots of warnings, with the snow pack melting and the spring/summer rains.
