Hopefully the next event isn’t too far off and is more region wide in terms of accumulating snow.

Absolutely. There is nothing better than an event where you don't have to worry about what elevation you're at or how far inland you are. Just region wide snow.

February 1989 style event early January followed by a January 1954 event mid month. Works for me. :thumbup: :clap:
