That's wild.  We got enough to wet the driveway, not enough to register on the rain gauge. Nashua had a few blow ups after passing our area this year.  Congrats.  

Edit: poor spelling.

So, when are we firing up the NNE snow, I mean, cold season, thread?

They were pretty good last winter with maintaining the cold. I haven't followed them since March.

At least the acorns are dropping this year.  We had zero last year. Now it seems like a lot of smaller and normal acorns everywhere.  Just took the dog out, Owls still trying to scare the rabbits out of their comfort zone.  What a night.

Looks like @CoastalWx gets to keep his beloved NAM a little longer!

As for his "garbage" model (RRFS), it does appear to have issues w/ making deeply  occluded lows into TCs too easily.  It did that for the most recent storm.  But non-TC CAMs usually do.
