Everything came together nicely this weekend for snow lovers. Last Wednesday, it was looking good for some weekend snow. As we moved into Friday, each run of the computer models brought us a snowier track for the low pressure system that was moving toward us. The result was a good old-fashioned snowstorm. Here are some preliminary snowfall totals, courtesy of the National Weather Service:
