I just got done reviewing the latest model data (00z GFS and NAM for you weather buffs out there). The results…are rather interesting. The NAM is spitting out a little over 0.30″ of liquid through Tuesday night, which when equated using the proper liquid to snow ratios (20:1), would result in around 7″ of snow! The GFS is a bit lighter on the amounts, showing a bit less than 0.30″ of liquid, or about 4-5 inches of snow…which is still a lot more than previous runs! Taking the models at face value would result in a forecast of 4-6″ of snow…or…a decent winter storm! However, I am still taking the conservative route with this and calling for 2-4″ of snow, but if the 06z GFS/NAM (next set of model runs) continue this trend, I will need to bump up my totals. The snow will start around 8am or shortly thereafter, and continue through Tuesday evening. Due to the cold temps, the snow will easily stick, so take it slow out there and expect travel issues…

i would love six more inches of snow, right about now.
Hahaha I hear ya…
2-4″ still looks solid, but some areas that get under a couple bands of heavier snow may reach 5″…
