Keep in mind the snow map is based off 10:1 ratios and doesn’t factor much else in. The warm ground temps, the fact it’ll be a heavy wet snow with temps about 33-34 will really cut down on totals. Realistically I would say a slushy 1-2” max if you take the Euro verbatim.

FWIW here’s the 00z Euro.

I don't think he was trying to "prove" anything but rather show an interesting correlation that can be useful if further data continues to corroborate it. If you haven't read the other posts by Steve and Ron you should. It sounds like you read the first post in the thread and then wrote it off without reading the additional info/research provided.

Its a far more valid conclusion with statistical data to back it up. The atmosphere tends to go in patterns and cycles, this is a scientific fact. It's reasonable to conclude that when statistics indicate a certain pattern produces certain outcomes it's worth looking in to. After all, this is how seasonal forecasting is done even though this is in its infancy. Large scale patterns like El Niño's generally correlate with wetter patterns in this area and a better chance for cold weather. There are various other factors that affect it too but that's just one example. What Ron posted is an interesting correlation that is worth looking further into. He actually took the time to do research and back up his statements with statistical analysis, if you're going to criticize it you should come up with some facts to indicate otherwise. Just my 2 cents.
