Geesh o.k. l caught it 😳 :lol: thanks for pointing that out, long shift off at 5.

The second round of snow shown for later Wednesday in some model runs makes this very difficult. For now I'm only thinking of Round 1, but I might update these.

Every model I look at has my area being buried in FEEEEETZ, much as I love snow 2-3 feet at a time is a bit much. We are well prepared to hunker down until a plow can make it down 50km of logging road to get to us.
