but none are perfect - also, each WFO may have used a different "start date/time" or "end date/time" for their storm total period

RAMMB/CIRA Slider also added some MRMS product options, but it's working funny for me again right now
----------MRMS PRODUCTS----------
MRMS Merged Base Reflectivity QC
MRMS Reflectivity At Lowest Altitude
MRMS Radar Precipitation Accumulation 1-hour
MRMS Lightning Probability 0-30 minutes - NLDN
MRMS CG Lightning Density 5-min - NLDN
MRMS Surface Precipitation Type/Flag
MRMS Radar Precipitation Rate

we only had about 3" where we are in Cypress, we were very lucky - totals varied greatly, even in rather short distances

all in all, a pretty hairy situation in our neck of the woods for a "waste of a name"
