The lead up to this system is reminding me of the fall system just last year.
3 days out: "oh hey. nice storm. too bad it's not 6 weeks from now. Some elevated snows."
2 days out: "drifting southeast, wrapping cold air in, maybe everyone sees flakes."
1 day out: "we're so close to a region wide crippling event."
day of: "What is BOX doing? Why haven't they hoisted warnings? are they even looking at the models."
Actual event: "oh hey. nice storm. too bad it wasn't 6 weeks from now. Cool that elevation got snow though."
