we're getting the worst kind of snow here; heavy, wet and sloppy. Temp +.06 I'm keeping an eye on the power line to my house-I was going to get the branches trimmed this year,because the previous owner hadn't had it done in a while- I hope it doesn't pull the line down

Yenno looking at radar I wouldn't exactly say it's overestimating precip rates...I have a feeling this will outdo a couple nights ago for many spots, especially western.

I was messing around, it’s actually the 10:1 map which is useless. Kuchera still showed a decent little event but nothing like that.
