Meh. Our fortunes have faded with each model run.
Consider this 'Call for Forecasts' a marker just in case the storm develops into something contest-worthy.

The forecast contest for Snow Storm #7 may be cancelled prior to the deadline if fewer than six stations are likely to observe at least a 4" snowfall.

Deadline for entries: 10:30 PM EDT ... SUN ... 11-MAR-18
Verification period begins: 12:01 AM EDT ... MON ... 12-MAR-18
Verification period ends: when snow associated with the primary storm ends

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 winter wx enthusiasts to see who can make the best synoptic-scale snowfall forecast. See how well your forecast stacks up against NWS Eastern Region Weather Forecast Offices.

If you are issuing your first forecast this winter ... or you entered the 'season-total' forecast contest ... you/ll need to create an account (user name / password / valid e-mail ... if you want a copy of your forecast sent to your Inbox).
NEWxSFC/s email client is permanently off-line.
Forecasters will no longer have a copy of their forecast emailed to them.
Apologies for the degraded service which is beyond my control.
