They are acceptable for everyone in this subforum. People just freak out because they might not get the jack. I will take 3 inches that is going to be on the ground for weeks gladly.
You are gonna do better than that. I would almost guarantee it. Plus you will get way better ratio's up there. Also keep in mind that this snow is going nowhere anytime soon.
3k is way better out here for my area. I think its a 6-10 storm for just about all of us. Nothing to complain about. And its going to be here for a long while as well.
