As always ... there/s no cost ... no fee ... no advertising ... or annoying requests for personal information to enter a forecast. It/s just a fun exercise for snow crows and winter wx enthusiasts to see who can make the best synoptic-scale snowfall forecast.

Heck I never got the Call for Forecasts email. Oh well, ill have to skip this one.
still using shan***@twcny.**.com?
Yes. I even checked my trash file thinking I may have inadvertently deleted it with junk spam but I didn't see it. I'll respond to a previous email to make sure you have the right email address. Enjoy your snow! I had about 19" of Lake Effect and feel robbed by the 65" 29 miles north.
