We have another shot at some accumulating snow around the end of next week.

Please heed the safety tips about shoveling snow. Last January I wound up in the hospital for three days with a diagnosed heart attack after shoveling some snow.

I completely forgot about this afternoon's conference call. Here are the infographics they sent me. There's another call scheduled for Friday afternoon.

I believe that is the name they give this storm. Same as the names of hurricanes.

updated map

This is my first call for possible snow accumulations. When new information becomes available, I will update this map.

I think it depends if the high pressure system that is forecast to be around Michigan. If it strengthens it could push the system back south. It's too early to tell at the moment. The 18z GFS is showing a shift to the south.
