Thanks to @mappy and @stormtracker for getting me back online after I screwed up my password!
Interesting to watch the satellite images of the cloud deck today erode from E to W.
I haven’t been using it, but it seems like the idea is that it is an augmentation to the weekly drought monitor. Having looked at some reports, it also seems to serve as a journal entry for some observers.

The NAM and GFS are spitting out those kinds of numbers, but the Euro is “only” up to about 2’.
ND is cold, but dry. Most of the state has an average snowfall under 3’. So, this is significant.
The GFS image was the total 16-day period. Which, absurdly, had three different snowstorms traversing northern MN.
Minneapolis’s #1 storm is 28”+, which puts it on par with the Knickerbocker (#1 DCA) and 2016 (#1 BWI) storms.
