  1. LOL that takes me from 3 to 10 inches. Not buying.
  2. Some folks will get upset that this busted, but it speaks to the state of forecasting honestly. The models aren't to be taken as what will happen, only an input into formulating a forecast. Even some mets I think have forgotten that. Models are a tool - not a prediction. There were some like @ers-wxman1 that sounded caution on this early and said the airmass wasn't conducive to a big event.
  3. We always seem to get more dryslotting than projections. Would not be surprised to see that as well.
  4. This is a cold rain 'near miss' and/or sleet fest for most here. Fun while it lasted ... it follows a similar pattern, we should be used to it by now.
  5. @ers-wxman1 Your earlier comments about the relative strength of the cold airmass make sense to me. This just doesn't seem to have the strength of arctic cold that we need for this close a track to hold for any length of time.
  6. Understood, from your earlier statements I figured that was a foregone conclusion.
  7. The oft-desired, seldom-seen Purple checkmark or 'magic quadrant':
  8. Yeah, if that verifies (it won't) then I'm golden. Here I expect some front end followed by a lot of mix and sleet and then finishing up with additional. Namely because that's usually the m.o. here. Hard to buck climo.
  9. In the "positive signs" department, it's now spitting nice fat flakes in between the torrential raindrops here, so that's good. I'm at 800 feet, so maybe some hope.
  10. Yeah but ahead of 'wishing really hard' though, so there's still hope!
  11. It's always fun until reality sets in. Climo wins again.
  12. Going strictly by personal experience I'd say it is likely that the storm is another > < this close miss. That's just living in the area for 25 years and knowing how these tend to go especially this early in the season.
  13. This is the most honest thing that will be posted in this thread within the next 48 hours.
  14. I see the forum is in mid-season antagonistic form.
  15. I will take that GFS run and be happy ... of course it's wrong, but hey 2020 so take any positive you can ...
