This post is to announce the snowfall contest for this coming season. Anybody can join in the guessing, and you can guess as many cities as you want, but I hope you decide to do them all. It’s just for fun (and bragging rights of course).
The only rules are to post in the comments below on this post your guesses for the following cities for snowfall to the nearest 10th of an inch (example, 43.2 inches).
Deadline for guesses is November 30!
Here are the cities…
Boston MA

Providence RI
Hartford (Bradley) CT
Concord NH
Burlington VT
