I forgot you were over here in DE. I think we are solid even in some sort of worst case fail scenario. Like others have said, get some sleep, and get ready to stay up late tomorrow night. I usually don't, but 2"/hour rates and possible thundersnow are worth it...

I think the past few winters have really helped me appreciate how much variety we have in terms of snow-events and gradients here. It's probably the best thing about Maryland winters that you can live in a place that averages 10" a year and there's still going to be some storm where you jack over someone with a 50" climo. This event is a northeast gradient, earlier this year was South-east, climo obviously favors North-west/South-west but we have it all

Not for those that understand climo, dynamics, and history. Writing has been on the wall for many days that this was not going to be a big double digit storm for anyone west of the bay. Aside from areas east of 97 or in isolated elevation favored areas, this was having the look of a 2-6” storm. It helps to not believe the pretty maps. 

You revised upwards? :D

Really respect the pro mets around here.  Very challenging forecasting these east coast storms.  They affect millions of people and 30miles or a degree or 2 can blow a forecast...

I might suggest relocating the the sierra where the forecast is either for nothing or for feet of snow all winter.  Hard to imagine anyone getting too upset with you if your 3-4feet of snow forecast busts high or low by a foot or 2.  No one probably notices or even cares.  And there are few people there to give a crap.  

Just a suggestion...

there's an entire subforum dedicated to Pennsylvania. 

definitely a suggestion...

Yeah I'm about to just ignore this storm for my own mental health...while the historic blizzard part was never quite in play, watching east and northeast get it and probably waking up to barely covered ground is downright depressing and putting me in a bad mood. Was so hoping things would trend wester but...as per typical Nina climo--up, up, and away northeast, smh I HOPE next year's Nino is in a decent enough spot for us to finally get our Miller A.

Well...at least I won't have egg on my face. I never believed this storm would produce from start because it's late February and a Nina. Something always happens that time of the calendar like the luck is worse than usual...little snows can work. Warning level snows? Something will go wrong always! Alright vent over...enjoy.

Off topic, just heard from my elderly dad who was diagnosed with flu + strep on Wed and has been miserable. It's been a little scary for me. This morning he crossed the "wanting coffee again" threshold and just now managed to eat something. I'm so glad. Now I can fully weenie out watching whatever this storm is unfold. I don't want to be that annoying sanctimonious person...snow is life, I'm a massive weenie...but it is also just snow.
