Looks like peeps to the SW either hit "their bar" or overperformed. Will that trait with this storm suddenly vanish on our doorstep? Doubt it. 

My wild ass guess call 2 days ago was 3-4". Started doubting it but still feel good. Me thinks you hit double digits before the curtains close at 5k'. 

Hope you can hang on to ground temps as long as possible once we switch. Same hope here.

Not funny to mess with our emotions like that lol. My bar is set at 4" here. Anything additional is just a bonus.

For MBY, this storm feels like an unexpected bonus check. I never really got seriously invested because these types of deals absolutely LOVE to slip away. It did start doing that yesterday but felt really good this AM when I checked all the data. 

Imho (subjective topic) this storm is 3 for 3 for my yard. All 3 did pretty much everything they could to ensure I got "acceptable" outcomes. This has been a very friendly period. Could continue easily too. We are a persistence wx location

That traffic cam out of McHenry shows the wind!  Whipping snow across the lake.  Great mountain storm...enjoy.

Yeah, LWX mentioned blizzard conditions at times in the warning text out here - I believe it for sure.  I’m hoping you stay snow for longer too…NAM sht the bed yesterday for sure.
