There isn’t a forecaster that can get storm predictions correct more than 24 hours before a rain or snow event. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve put my plow on for predicted heavy snowfall that turned out to be an inch or less.
Or set up to paint a house only to have it raining by 10am when showers were forecast for late afternoon or evening.
NECN was the most accurate one for this area, now with direct TV I don’t get them.
I’ll believe it when the snow is on the ground and my pockets have money in them.
