Finally what's so bad with getting excited about an event that so rarely
happens? SNIP

Lawrence I agree with you sentiment and I get as excited as anyone about
snow and just as annoyed when it doesn't happen.
The key, to quote you, is * an event that so rarely happens*. The fact is
that is hasn't happened and GFS is not a factual forecast - as we all
know.
We are fortunate/unfortunate (delete which is appropriate to you) enough
to have access to information that we could barely have dreamnt of in the
60 and 70's, and this is what now leads to so much conjecture and
speculation.
Maybe we would be better off without GFS et al and just let it happen.
(This mornings run looks good though!)

I know David, but it's so hard to resist a peek, it's an addiction for me
this time of year.
In all seriousness just seeing some of those lovely potentially albeit
fictitious severe set ups, sends me into dreamlike trance. What if, what if?
