We have excellent vibes going into the 0z suite. Well, good luck to everybody, and hopefully the GFS caves big time while the Euro and CMC trend more amped and give everybody from SE to NW 24+".
The "considered" amount of snowfall depends on your opinion, but I like to think of them like this:
SECS = Significant (4-8")
MECS = Major (8-16")
HECS = Historic (16-24")
BECS = Biblical (24+")
FOLKS happens when a model run produces lots of snow, usually 12+".
