    Based on nothing but the vibe of the winter and the air mass overhead, I think this performs better than expected. I’m sticking with my original first call. But I won’t be surprised if totals are on the higher end of this.

    3-6” - shore points extreme snj

    6-12” - 95/195 corridor 

    8-14” N and W of 95 with lollipops of 20” for whoever stays all snow.

     

    i don’t think anyone sees significant freezing rain either.

    Seems logical. Start and end times?

    *Going w/11"-13" for my area. The thump better THUMP though...

    I think I’m so traumatized from a decade of crap winters that anything non-liquid falling from the sky feels like a win. 

    I'm  :oldman: as well and agree. I'm just glad this thing isn't turning to plain rain w/temps bolting to the 50s. If not snow, I'm in small camp and would rather have major ice storm than sleet. We haven't had one in a while but if sleet is all we have on the table, I'll take it. And w/the expected temps this week it will be a brick out there for a while...

    It’s all about perspective, right? It’s a letdown because we were looking at the potential of a foot or more of snow earlier in the week.

    But what if we were looking at a rainstorm earlier in the week and it evolved into this? We’d be doing cartwheels.

    That’s why an old-timer met likes to say, “enjoy the weather, it’s the only weather you got.”

    :oldman:

    None of this will make a young buck of a weenie feel better...

    How much sleet did we get in the 2007 storm. This has to be up there in one of the most we’ve gotten in a while right?


    .

    I'd say 3-4". I was driving through Oaks/Collegeville on Rt 422. It was a weird driving experience. Steering the car just felt funny and strange...
