Have they upped the accumulation forecast since lunch-time today? When I went out for lunch, I saw a forecast map on television that showed my area (NF) at 2 - 4"? And now I see what you just posted Cam (pasted below) and am confused???

You guys should have these links saved by now. Shame on you. Lol..

NWS snow total forecasts. Remember each office covers specific areas so find out who covers you.

NWS Boston: WFO BOX Storm Total Snow Forecast

NWS Albany: Winter Storm Graphics

Let me know if you guys need more links for something. Radar?

Might be hard to get there but then again rain will make the roads driveable.. Ice wont. otherwise just wait till 9am and look outside. You'll know what to do then. I wouldn't close yet. Tell employees to wait for your call tomorrow morning whether there's work or not. Don't know what kind of store it is so maybe 1 day off won't be too bad. Will shoppers really be coming in if its snow,ice,rain?
