Could care less north of the M/D line. Would be ok if mid Atlantic gets crushed and PHL/north smokes cirrus for three months. Snow is some serious sht.

Nice forecast write up by John Homenuk and his team. Explains the reasoning well and supports many other’s thinking that the back half of winter will be loaded.
A few good gusts here (40) and T&L (at the house in McHenry). The highest peaks near Canaan should switch to rain/snow mix overnight if I had to guess. All rain here though.
Good article on the pending GPS upgrade (FV3):

The pictures of the snowfall during the CCB were so intense. I was getting dry slotted at the time but as it pulled through here, it was legit blizzard conditions for an hour or so.
