Here in DC, we’ve not had a good snowfall in quite awhile. We’re overdue for one. The clickbait news has spent days playing up the apocalypse, but as it gets closer the start keeps getting delayed and the expected totals are steadily reduced.

It’s sort of like push polls before an election, where the pollsters have to rope it in at the end to preserve credibility.

We’re now down to 5-8 inches. With any luck it will get hung up on the beltway and miss us.

Agree with the push polls. The local forecasts are getting closer, but still some variation. Guess it comes down to the model(s) being used.
