I can't believe 60 units of omega into the DGZ...on both models too. Could see ratios perhaps up around 18:1 if that verifies. Could snow 3''+ per hour for a good 3 hours

Yea I'm really thinking that rt. 8 stretch from Waterbury/Winsted jacks and breaks 20". The Snow Capital of Norfolk could make a run at 2'.

I don't buy large areas over 15" at all. Don't see it. Weenies and even some red tags going wild. A lot of totals around 12" I think. 

When they paint a large area with 12-18 or 18-24, doesn’t mean that everyone will get that. That’s the potential. Anyone who follows these things knows there are jp’s and screw zones.  But how would you identify those on a map for public consumption.

CT alert called this a SNOW CRISIS!!

The Hype around snowstorms are so laughable now.  A general 10-18  / 12-20 type storm would be considered “A pretty big snowstorm” when I was a kid.  Now the news and especially National News is “A Dangerous Life-Threatening Storm”.  
 

Hide the Kids!  Put them in bubble wrap, for God’s Sake Save the Children!  Buy Groceries because the stores will Never Operate again!  
 

What happened to people.  Find your damn ballsacks from pre-1960 and reattach.  (Not you guys)

Very little happened to people but what happened was instead of 3 TV stations clamoring for attention there are now hundreds plus the net.  TV wants you to tune in and thus hypes this stuff like crazy.  People now also share Kuchera clown maps on Facebook and that is how news is spread to many without explanation.  People are the same, media is different.  If anything snowstorms have less of an impact than they used to because up until the 1/96 storm, AWD and 4WD with the exception whereas now most everyone has an SUV or Crossover with AWD or at least knows someone with one.  In the 96 storm, NJ hospitals asked for volunteers with AWD to help patients get to treatment.  That would likely not happen today.

I completely agree with you. The hype for snowstorms is off the charts. People would lose their minds if a storm similar to the Blizzard of 78 or Superstorm 93 was about to hit the area. In general people are "softer" now days.
