I do love fake news for fun...just saw ABC National News as always leading with " life threatening storm" impacting blank million people in the mid atlantic and Northeast....they really do have a checklist!!

Of course we must....as that is the way the NWS views these events they are considered one storm.

Justin you are correct! my point and click had 0.5" possible by this evening.....snow continues to fall steadily but lightly -latest HRRR looks like we may never stop snowing as the coastal begins to throw moisture back to the west. That said much less snow will clearly fall here in the NW burbs compared to philly and points east!!

My First Forecast Pass on this "event"

My First Forecast for this "event"

It really is amazing how the King Euro has fallen....but what really surprises me is how slow it is to react to the changes. The other models start east and the Euro continues to double down on the error. That said it will go east with the 12z that is the new model pattern.
