I don't think anybody roots for what they are getting. We talk around here about getting 6 inches or a foot if we're lucky. Not 6 feet. What we got in 2010 I enjoyed. I picked up 20" from that one and got a day off of work. As a weather enthusiast, you enjoy things like that because you don't know the next time you'll see something like that. Especially in this area where we routinely miss out.

Yeah I agree. I'd love to get 2-3 feet out of a storm but much more than that starts to really increase the odds of loss of life and property. I'm still hoping one year to see our area get smacked with a big storm in early January followed by a nice arctic outbreak, seems our best storms are always around the middle of Feb so the winter wonderland doesn't have a chance to stick around long.

I think this ends up another fringe job, which given the Holiday and lots of family and friends traveling its probably for the better. That being said keep an eye on the clipper, if it slows down should allow this to come further west.

Slight west move on 12z but it will take a huge jump for us to see anything note worthy. I took a look at the EUro Ensembles and some jackpot us but thats maybe 10 members out of I believe 60. Its still early and I just hope we get atleast one 6+ storm.

Is a 6z NAM run worth getting excited over?

Don't try and suck me into this one! I gave up on this storm days ago! Lol We still get fringed although you might get something out of it. I generally don't get too excited over the NAM, especially if it's the outlier. GFS still fringes us. I don't know what the EURO showed last night. My guess is, what it's been showing. I'm not getting my hopes up on this one.
