Updated NWS forecast

Monday, February 12, 1:00PM--

Right after I issued my "Drop Dead Prediction," the NWS updated their forecast, and the new forecast is more dire than the previous one.

They are now calling for 3-6" of snow by the time the storm ends tomorrow. And while they have not upgraded the Winter Weather Advisory to a typically more-serious Snow Advisory (and 3-6" of snow WOULD meet the criteria for a Snow Advisory), they appear more confident that we will be getting quite a bit of snow here in STL.

Did I make a mistake in thinking this will mostly be a rain-maker? Maybe. But I believe in making a prediction and sticking to my guns, right or wrong.

So let's hope for the best, and that by this time tomorrow, we have 6" of the white stuff on the ground, and I am eating some crow!
