Euro had a big storm but had dry air up here eating down totals. Day of the event GFS and Co still had 12+ while the euro still had basically nothing.We ended up with less than an inch. I know different storm different regions but its just something to keep in mind.That storm broke me last winter. This hobby hasn't been the same for me since then.Juno broke me. 24-36” Euro NAM dynamic duo. Ended up with 6”.

Ended up with 6”.There were three major busts, every seven years, during that time frame.March 5, 2001, we were predicted for a week to get "potentially feet" of snow, and wound up with 2-5" that was never even on the ground the same time.That one hurt a lot because it was our last shot that winter and the next winter was warm and snowless.Jan 14, 2008, was forecast to get 8-14" and ended up with light rain. That one hurt because that was a warm winter here and the only other snow we had was 4-8" from an SWFE 5 weeks later.Then Juno in 2015. Got 4-8" and forecast to get 2-3 feet. The only thing that didn't hurt as much that time was that the pattern going forward was epic.
