I think ratios could be lower with mild-ish boundary layer so those 10:1 maps might be a bit high. Take 8:1 or so. Expand Last one here was 7.6:1 when I did a core sample, Most likely similar Or we could be a touch better here unless things change aloft today.

It will end up a disjointed ugly-looking system most likely with a zone of like 2-4" of wet snow for CNE/NNE. Maybe someone lucky gets a 5-6 spot. We could still see a bit at the end down here but it's not looking like more than an inch anywhere. The "storm" just shunts east really fast.
