Yeah me too. It snowed for a little bit around midnight here, but it wasn't sticking to the ground much. I woke up this morning hoping to see at least a coating and it's just wet. 5 to 8 inches my *****.

No snow here either. It was still 39 degrees at 11pm last night so I knew we weren't going to get any snow.

The winds didnt swift to the north fast enough to bring in the cold air. The ocean is 45 degrees so that kept the rain snow line father west than normal. The storm really didnt have full force till it got into CT. But at least theres no need to shovel 1".

It seems like meteorologists are lucky if they can predict that Tuesday is gonna come after Monday The more technology they get, the worse their predictions become. It's understandable that they make mistakes, but they make it worse for themselves when they over-hype predictions so much that turn out to be wrong.

The problem is that these so called meteorologists don't do any actual weather research themselves they let a computer tell them what is going to happen.

Before all this dopplar Bull shtuff they would look at wind speed, wind direction, dew points, temperatures, pressure systems, etc and actually track them with scientific data. Now the computers generate all the information and no one looks it over to examine it to see if it's correct.

If you looked at the maps last night around 6 pm you would see the part of the storm that was suppose to sweep up the coast and mix with the cold winds got pushed out over the ocean really fast because of the jet stream.

I told my wife we weren't getting anything but that people way north of us would and that's pretty much what happened.
