Ridiculous at this point 😂😂. NAM went almost snow cancel for me and GFS says 4.5 inches… all on the day of the storm🤦🏽‍♂️. I’m gonna go with the lower totals and just be pleasantly surprised if the GFS is right.

But I'll get what I hope to be a unique experience tomorrow--0z balloon launch

That's 7PM.....so I'll look up about 7:10-7:15 to see if I can see it.

In looking at the hazards map for the US, lots of hazards out there.   But I think Scott is double counting since some locations are under multiple hazards.  Google says US, including Alaska, has 9.1 million sq km.   In any event, its a coast to coast event.

DTX’s graphic has increased totals for all of the area. Wonder if they’re buying into the GFS a little bit?

 

Edit: Looking at the graphic from yesterday, totals haven’t increased everywhere. It seems like it’s just more balanced and not as sharp of a cutoff in the south.

Yup, I’m just outside that 8-10” swath in the thumb and it was a little bigger/more chunky yesterday.

They also upped the wind forecast from 55 to 60mph. I’m amazed they haven’t pulled the trigger on a blizzard warning yet with forecasted winds that high and as much snow as we’re getting. 
 

I mean they’re gonna have to right? What would be stopping them at this point??

 No one, wants to pull the trigger on a blizzard warning unless they are very sure of it happening. The public can be very cruel when those types of warnings bust. Heck, Mets get heckled to death if they miscast a dang thunderstorm!

 

I kind of don’t blame them and this storm is super tricky, too.

And SEMI is prolly the biggest question mark area of this entire storm. 50 miles in either direction for the low has huge implications.

Assuming your in the DTX area, they talk about in their discussion.  Here's just the intro....

-Blizzard conditions are possible Friday afternoon and evening resulting in whiteout conditions at times, but confidence remains low in verifiable blizzard criteria (see details below).
