With the era of automated obs, formal blizzard criteria is awfully hard to reach these days... So we get into a condition where a VERY VERY strong snowstorm, close to blizzard criteria, gets a BZW from one office and a WSW from another. For the exact same forecast.
Anyone think it might make sense to reduce the vis criteria at least, and maybe slighly draw down the winds to make a blizzard warning reachable?
Wilmington popped one last night while Cleveland has just a WSW, but none of the sites I can find even came close to verifying.
