We see a gradual warm up before any significant precip arrives which means any ice amounts shouldnt be concerning.

Not sure about that either. GFS precip maps have been terrible. Just saying.

It sure will! The only question is the process and the timeline. Often ends up being significantly slower and messier than initially modelled.
