      The interface is rich! I'm struggling to see new snow totals over time for the various models available.

      It would be great if snow totals were given a row on the table above or below rain. Then, one could choose which model, or even compare snow totals with the models. Snow totals are tricky, a bonus would be to choose snow ratios in settings.

        The accumulation of snowfall would be misleading, as snow naturally settles (and melts).
        You better look at “Snow depth” layer and use only high resolution models.
        See this thread

        In mountainous areas, it's important to check the altitude at which the model "sees" the location.
        For the default model, ECMWF 9km resolution, the elevation of Mount Washington is:

        B4C36F43-3B7B-4657-A3A9-2CFE40AABCC8.jpeg

        For HRRR 3km resolution, the elevation is closer to the actual one:

        9C439159-F876-4AAF-A659-D480D05D87B6.jpeg

        No doubt the snow forecast from this model will be more accurate.

          Thank you. How do you display "About Location" which includes the model elevation? I cannot find that?

            At right end of the Basic panel that you showed in your screenshot.
