I think that is when we actually have a legit shot at a good storm here. The big ones that show up 10 days out hardly work out. But when we have one that pops up 5 days out and slowly evolve over the next few days, that usually turns out to be the real deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, it was a good one just given how so many areas were involved, and the late changes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the short range models ending up doing a great job. I know some bullets were being sweated this morning, but I would assume most, not all, but most are cool with the out come.

Longer the lead time seems to have a greater letdown. However, in the SE you must see and smell the snow before you give in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We finally got the ratios this afternoon late. Made a tremendous difference in the presentation and intensity of the snowfall, as one would expect. Hope you guys can get in on the action.
