Going to be a race between the heavy snow thump and the warm air on south winds down here. I've seen the snow be successful sometimes for a few hours or so-there could be 3-5" just about everywhere if it comes in like a wall and goes to town. If it comes in as broken echos it'll be hard to break 1-2" with the opportunity to quickly warm up near the city/coast.

Meh it was way too cold for the coast this past weekend. Wasn't it showing 3-5" until the day before?

Not that much, but no other model really was ever showing much outside of the Canadian.  This setup is a very weak shortwave embedded in fast flow slamming into a high.  This is about as good a setup here for overrunning possible because the mid-levels often do not warm as fast, and the system does not have much room to amplify into a monster cutting bomb.  The only bad thing is the high positioning is further south than you want it.
