I just checked this morning on a few sites that seem to be keyed in, usually.. but looks like 4-8" what im seeing.
Then there is the game of lake effect for the north end.. thats where it gets interesting.

The East cost prediction was not really wrong...the targeted path was off 100miles. Some cities still got 30" of snow...that being said ill let you know on Monday. :)

Wednesday they were saying 3-6 here, yesterday they changed it to 1-2, today they are saying up to 6.  Bottom line is they don't know until it clears the rockies out west and they get a better idea of the storm track.

Fisherman's Prayer
   I pray that I may live to fish

And when it comes to my last cast,

When in the Lord's great landing net
           And peacefully asleep,
      That in His mercy I be Judged
              BIG ENOUGH TO KEEP.

They gotta turn on sometime. I know some folks who are sitting over fish that they can visibly see, and they are just lockjawed.

Two to three would be all I ask for so my sled can run around the lake a little easier...Can still make ice as well.

The only reason I hope we get 12" is so I can call off work and go fishing lol.

Some areas out there got 3 feet (an area I used to live at) and are expecting another 1 foot Monday. Can you imagine 4 feet of snow on the ice?  ::)

Latest forecast for my area of Indiana says 7 to 11 inches and higher amounts in some places:

http://forecast.weather.gov/showsigwx.php?warnzone=INZ008&warncounty=INC113&firewxzone=INZ008&local_place1=3%20Miles%20ESE%20Wawaka%20IN&product1=Winter+Storm+Warning&lat=41.457&lon=-85.4236#.VMzFpGt5mK0

Someone I know that works for the NWS on North Webster thinks we will get closer to 15 inches.

All depends on the exact storm track!

We are predicted to get 10 to 15 by late Sunday in my area now.

Might have to hit the ice this evening before the storm. Might be a good bite.

Think positive,  with that kinda snow you know your shack will be warm with the snow piled around it's base.
