Yes I am here and have been reading, just not much to add yet lol. I just saw the maps wow is all I can say. Normally I would be giving a chance this early a big no go, but after last years (I think dec 8 or 9?) big early snow I guess it can happen. I have seen too many of these end in disaster as we get closer (although so far so good) so I am just sort of watching and waiting.
I will say that one concern is the huge amount of QPF in that if we end up with more ice over snow, if it is coming down hard enough it would be less likely to accumulate and/or latent heat release would raise the temp just above freezing. Some of the amounts showing up are just outrageous and I have a hard time believing it. Of course even half or a fraction would be a good dumping
