Do you think the GFS pattern could verify but with less extreme temperatures and snow?

well, I mean depending on how the moisture arrives and how the arctic air arrives, the E. coast of the island can get buried. Most of the time I get snow, it has rarely been forecast because the models don't handle "strait effect" precip that well. I guess the question most people are wondering is if this will be a region wide event like 2008 or localized?
