Just looked at a weather report from my hometown in upstate NY…
THE BAND IS EXPECTED TO SETTLE ACROSS THE TUG HILL REGION THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY. STORM TOTAL ACCUMULATIONS OF 1 TO 2 FEET ARE POSSIBLE ACROSS CENTRAL JEFFERSON AND NORTHERN LEWIS COUNTIES. ACROSS THE TUG HILL PLATEAU REGION...STORM TOTAL ACCUMULATIONS MAY EXCEED 4 FEET BY SATURDAY AFTERNOON. The stores run out of milk and bread when we have an inch or two in the forecast. What would happen if we had 4 feet in the forecast?!
This forecast was correct by the way. Some areas got more than 3 feet!
