cyclone77 Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 DVN did in fact up the totals. They now have us in the 9-13" range, which is up from the 8-12" forecast earlier. Still haven't got into anything other than high end light. Got a solid dusting so far, probably on the order of 1/3". Large blob of much heavier snows about to move in.
