Getting nice heavy squall now.
Over running is nice but in general doesn't have the other dynamic effects. There's some I'm guessing 30-40 million plus people covering 7 states who saw very intense snow from this bombogenesis coastal. Extremely large area of 15 to 36 inches of snow. Yeah, always tough to nail the western edges of these storms and some get screwed by subsidence but they get pretty frequently, they pretty much eventually even out. One of the downfalls living here is not getting in on these kind of long duration intense snows other than once or twice in a lifetime.
