This is it. Later this evening (Friday), the biggest snowstorm of the year is projected to hit western Washington. Last night, forecasters began to fear this was overblown, but new models have us back on track for significant snow.

KOMONews.com meteorologist Scott Sistek walks KOMO Newsradio reporter Charlie Harger through the timing of the storm and what the latest projected totals are. Scott also discusses what factors could lead to LESS snow than forecast, and what could lead to MORE snowfall totals as well.

What's going through the minds of local meteorologists? Scott describes their wide range of concerns and feelings ahead of the storm.

That, and much more in this episode, along with some bonus content at the very end for people who were carefully listening to the show.
