How much snow will we get in the city? (contest 2)
My thread is a copycat thread and in tribute to Aragx6.
This time I think we will get hammered for sure unlike the last time.
So...
Guess the total OFFICIAL (O'Hare) snowfall we (Chicago only) will get on Friday, 1-09-2009 and you may get a prize (probably in person at a Meet-Up; like a beer or two.) Your guess must be in BEFORE 9am on 1-09-2009.
I say 6 inches.

4.5 inches. For the 4.5 hours I'll be spending driving up Saturday morning, and then moving into the new place shortly thereafter. Fun!

Well, this last snowfall was supposed to be a 'dusting' and we ended up with over 2-3 inches...now this snowfall was to be maybe one inch and now we're in the 5-8 inch category depending on which channel you believe. I'll go all out and say 7 inches...

I won last time and no one congratulated me.
Anyway, I predict 5.
