The system played out as I feared it would, with hours of rain ending as snow grains.

 

Hope for the best.......... 

 

 

Mabey it's just selective memory, but these types of systems seem to be more and more common.

 

I remember in the past, we would have rain to snow, but still manage a decent 1 or 2 inches.

Heres the RAP from a system last year that ended up doing exactly the same as this one exept I think we sneaked an inch out.

Love snow, but I really never root for a storm and what is happening up there is the reason why. Imagine if that happened here? We would have hundreds if not thousands dead. Just not worth it.

I love following the weather and tracking it, but what we get is what we get. I can never root for us to get bombed. Cause we just aren't use to it. They are and they are having major issues.

They are worried now about houses and buildings collapsing with snow weight on them.

I don't think anybody roots for what they are getting. We talk around here about getting 6 inches or a foot if we're lucky. Not 6 feet. What we got in 2010 I enjoyed. I picked up 20" from that one and got a day off of work. As a weather enthusiast, you enjoy things like that because you don't know the next time you'll see something like that. Especially in this area where we routinely miss out.

It would quite literally be impossible for us to get 8 feet of snow.

My feeling is that with a run of the mill snowstorm around here, people have to be pretty dumb to get hurt in it. It's why I have no problem rooting for a foot of snow.

Now what I don't understand is when people want a hurricane to impact them directly, or tornadoes in their area..those are things that can kill you much easier.
