Agree, but even dividing those numbers by 5 (which is similar to what you're eluding to) still yields a statistically significant "snowstorm" for Toronto.  I'm happy to see them at least have a shot.  

Toronto is an unbelievably snowless location for its latitude and proximity to the great lakes (which obviously don't help them).  Look at these pitiful numbers...

If they even got 7 inches it would be their largest single day snowfall in over a decade, AMAZING

Most snow to fall in one day during recent years in Toronto

4.1    February 21, 2015    
6.9    December 11, 2014

What about February 7, 2013. I could have sworn we saw over a foot with that storm.

Maybe didn't make the list as the snowfall occurred overnight and was accounted for over 2 calendar days?  That's why a lot of why records "miss" some actual storms?

It’s hard to get too excited about this event here. Too far East for synoptic snow and too far south for lake effect.  Guess I’ll get my popcorn and beer and be a spectator.

You will get in on the action as well bro, flow will turn WNW later Friday into Saturday.  Global models look pretty good out that way as well fwiw.. Obviously not as much as the tug but that's to be expected lol

Here was the 6z global and regional Canadian..

You can see some differences in where the enhancement starts off, global more Westerly while regional more WSW..Nam has been going back and forth between Westerly and wsw.. Meanwhile the European models have very little WSW and keep it mostly west-wnw, crushing central Oswego county..

It’s gonna be close for Rochester. Ultimately, I gotta believe the models, best thermals just N and W. It’s a heartbreak and I’m gonna be hoping on ‘dynamic cooling’ whatever that is. 

This is that critical frame!  It’s a race between the cold air and precip. There’s likely gonna be a disappointed back side area!
