The timing was off, but the forecast was there from many of the meteorologists who were more comfortable relying on the Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models. Onset of precipitation can still be a very difficult variable to forecast.
I'm sorry Rose, what I meant to say was that I specifically remember listening to Don Kent on 'BZ Radio that Monday morning, forecast 1-3 inches of snow. I was a senior in High School at the time. I remember it like it was yesterday. Also, don't get me wrong, I truly feel that Don Kent is a legend as I posted earlier in this thread. I don't want to leave the wrong impression.
