Probably automated

that'd be my guess, too.

it's fun to watch it add snow, but i don't think it is supposed to have a direct relationship to the actual watches and warnings, so it's pointless to freak out about it if the totals go down.

Goddamnit, y'all.     I have literally worked as a RAP/HRRR developer, and I would still use the JMA or NAVGEM before I used the RAP/HRRR system for snow amounts.    B)

I'm not really posting this about this system, but I was reminded of it and have to give it another moment in the spotlight :lol: ...one of the best posts of the winter perhaps ever

No way anyone is panicking about the HRRR. And even still it has a 2-5 storm for everyone. 

I in no way meant to suggest anyone is panicking. Just seeing the letters hrrr was enough to  make  me remember this awesome post. I said I wasn't posting about the system

They’ll probably replace it with a new headline. Not sure why they hoisted a special weather statement in the first place, especially seeing that they hoisted a WSW soon after

They replaced it with another SPS

Here's the 1.33k at 36 hours - not sure how skilled it is toward the end of the run.. It precips lightly after this.  But 90%+ over.

...ACCUMULATING SNOW POSSIBLE FRIDAY NIGHT...

Snow will overspread the area from west to east Friday evening and
exit Saturday morning. Generally one to three inches of snow is
expected at this time. Localized totals upwards of four to six
inches are possible wherever the bands of snow set up. Snowfall
rates of one to two inches per hour are possible in these bands.

Plan on slippery road conditions. The hazardous conditions could
impact travel Friday night into Saturday morning.
