When I heard TV mets on the 10pm news calling for whiteout conditions and someone seeing 6 inches of snow... to me that is hype.
I understand totally. But there WERE some real whiteout conditions and six inches of snow...just not exactly where it had been expected. I guess what I'm saying is that it's kind of like during hurricane season - we focus on the dot on the map and where it will cross the shoreline, the NHC tells us to be ready anywhere in the cone of uncertainty.
Doesn't mean I was happy that all I got was 30 minutes of light snowflakes or that I didn't consider it a busted forecast, because in many ways it was. But the storm itself, its strength and its potential were all realized IMO even if it wasn't where I wanted it to be.
