2-4 inches per hour possible for some. Wow. Hopefully this storm tracks a bit further north than they think!

Berkshire east would not be a good bet for the woods if you like your bases. I was there a couple days ago and there is no base outside of man made snow. A foot of snow would help things big time!

There is so much in flux with this storm that the track change on almost an hourly basis. I have a feeling many of us won't be making decisions until right before.

Amen. So much could change still. But if you look at trends, the one thing that has been remarkably consistent is that all guidance suggests s.NE in the jackpot zone. Catskills and Berks and s.VT etc...

Also, if you look at trends, the one model that was somewhat pessimistic was the Canadian (wanted to put a big chunk of the precip shield OTC), and now even that shows a big snowstorm over land.

Here's what I mean with the Canuck.

It still has the best snowfalls farther east than any of the models, but it moved way west from prior (a very good sign).

Even where I am in NJ I would get about 9" from this run, and before it only wanted to give me like 3" or 4".

Second Canuck model is in.

Pretty much the same idea as the other models, but this one is the most north of all the models and basically takes NJ and NYCs snow and gives it to central VT. Remember to multiply the snow on this map by 1.5 for actual totals since the default is only 10:1.

I think you missed your calling in meteorology!
