Winter '15 / '16 - Snow Storm #1: Call for Forecasts
Powerhouse winter storm setting its sights on the M-A and extreme SNE. Progs planting a closed-upper LOW along the SE coast suggest a long-duration event as the SFC LOW/s progress slows to a crawl.
No question whether this is a contest-worthy storm. Couldn't ask for a better mid-latitude cyclone to kick-off the season other than its tardy arrival a week past winter's mid-point.
