I think America's being greedy now. Sounds like more snow on the way for the NE coast.

[The Enforcer]

It should have been the only dry day of the week here according to all the forecasts, but sure enough rain has pitched up yet again. Not just a little rain either - it's been raining since 4:30pm. So that's nearly four hours of completely unforecasted rain. It sounds far fetched, but check the NW radar. I was hoping for some better short-range forecasts this year, but this is a lamentable start.
