I got the foot and a half figure by adding all the maximum amounts for daytime forecast and nighttime forecast.... (2-4 inches plus 1-3 inches etc....) i figured that would be worst case scenario... LOL

If I used that approach for all of the maximum amounts that the Weather Channel had predicted for my area this winter, the snow piles would be up to the second floor. They do have a tendency to overforecast.

We used to just have some snow. Now, every time there is any winter weather, it has to be on account of a named storm, with full team coverage.

Currently waiting for the second part of this storm. The first half brought very heavy slush and an icy crust. The back half may provide more snow, and it appears that there will be a greater accumulation of snow to the South of us (i.e. closer to the NY metro area). Should have moved out by Thursday morning.

It's no surprise that weather forecasters make terrible handicappers. However I think most of the prognosticators around here would do a much better job at the NWS than the posers they currently employ. AND I know for a fact we could come up with better names for storms... Harlan's Hurricane or Seabiscuit's Fury work for me.
