as a past and a near future sd resident, im laughing at how people are handling their lil cool snap out there rn. was 40 in la mesa (about 8 miles east from downtown sd) and people are "freezing". my girlfriend (native san diegan) who lives out there has been complaining about the cold lmao

its like people in nj complaining about bad winters; ask anyone from a place with bad winters what they think of our mellow winters here....got family in maine.....

The euro probably won't budge much

I'm glad to see that it made a pretty good move. The 10 inches that the Euro is showing for our area seems like a realistic worst case scenario. 

[North and West]

The groundhog slander too. I've never seen folks so indignant about winter weather in the middle of February

You leave that resplendent rodent out of this!

Over and under odds of what the Central Park official measurement will be regardless of how much snow actually falls?

SE tick but not much

Its not so much southeast as the members are congealing around a more cohesive mean.  You lost some of the crazier members, and there werent a ton of SE members to lose, so it results in a look thats slightly SE

I think 16 inches would be a fair 50-50 over under.

  could cause sporadic power outages. Travel could be very difficult
  to impossible. Areas of blowing snow could significantly reduce
  visibility. The hazardous conditions will impact the Monday
  morning and evening commutes.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Strongest winds are expected Sunday evening
  through Monday afternoon.

[RU848789]

Ok, time to up those accumulations - the King is on board! Best Euro run yet.

[Snowman92]

Not sure why EURO is so low on the amounts, don't think that will verify.

In a few hours we can begin nowcasting against prior runs for location of low and especially paying attention to the shorter range models tonight.

[MJO812]

Upton increased amounts to 15-20 for NYC area.

[nycsnow]

As expected blizzard warnings expanding, clear as day that would need to be done 

[Stormlover74]

Don't forget we have a snowfall contest
