If you can't find that information, I would bet they are waiting until recon gets there to measure it so they are accurate about it. The economics of this can not withstand large forecasting errors now. The politics are going to have to get out of the way. People are too tired to react to general information and others simply have no place left to go and no money to get there.


...which is the best argument for getting the information out as accurately as possible and as early as possible. Under these conditions, many folks will need the extra time it could provide. If a 'heads-up' forecast freaks or panics them, imagine what happens when they have 48 hours or less to prepare...now that's panic.
