Something is up with the Srefs. Next to no snow up north and precip is mainly across the MA. Check out Pivotal maps for latest 2 runs. Gotta be wrong.
Here's the link to 9z total qpf off Srefs.

I remember that snow event vividly. I had to get to the office and coming out of my subdivision was a slight hill and bend. My tires started slipping as I approached the turn so I hit the brakes and the car just slid while I headed for a mailbox. I took my foot off the brake to get a better position on the brake and the tires got traction and the car turned, barely missing the mailbox. And that event was cold as he!! with temps during snow and that morning in the mid teens. It was so close to being an historic winter for coldcand snow but for the uncooperative mid levels thanks to the u/l lows passing too far to our NW.
It shows up on the snow depth map. Our snow depth (including sleet of course), is greater than some all snow locations thanks to the density of the sleet.
6z Euro went the wrong way for Friday. Yesterday's 6z Gfs is looking like a blip. I just hope we can skip the zr and ip. Nothing exciting about spending Christmas weekend day inside.
Keep in mind that the models have been horrendous in the 4+ day range, so it's hard to believe anything beyond 48hrs imho, good or bad. So even if 1 or 2 showed a storm beyond 4 days, chances are it's a lie.
