This is about the time when we talk about snow total vs. total accumulation.

The snow total may be just over an inch but what's on the ground isn't measurable in most places right now.

I am finding that the snow totals are likely to be in the 3"-5" range.

But what's on the ground is likely to be in the 1" to 3" range (for Pittsburgh) before it is all said and done.
