About to head home from Akron. 8-10” powder during the day, 3’ drifts in front of my truck in parking lot. And still ripping.

Still 2-3”/hr here. in Alden. Freaking incredible.

Full on blizzard in Alden. 2-3”/ hr rate easy right now.

I’m in Alden for work this afternoon and marginal blizzard conditions here for the last few hours. Huge dendrites falling with vis down near 0 in wind gusts. Awesome out.

Flipped to snow here. Our daily H2O bonanza has now come full circle. Heavy snow to sleet to freezing rain to rain...now a final encore of some snow.

12z op run of Euro looks quite interesting next weekend for most if not all of us. Hopefully that system trends in a good direction over the next few days.

What a furnace outside! It’s like the polar vortex ripped a hole in the atmosphere over our head and when it retreated it was replaced by a bubble of air from the Gulf coast. Upper 50’s IMBY, but feels SO much warmer in the sun. The remaining snow is meting in hyper speed.

Yeah, we roasted here in WNY. I drove home from NYC this morning and the thermometer kept climbing the whole way. Even had the windows down when the blowtorch really kicked in west of the Genny valley. Meanwhile, I think northeaster NY up around Plattsburgh is in the teens today with some snow.

Anyone have final snow totals from last week? Sorry if I missed it here, not seeing anything on NWS website.

Op yes, EPS = no.

Par for the course man. No single spot is ever guaranteed big accumulations when it comes to lake effect snow. Some seasons will favor w/wsw flows, others will be w/wnw. Yet others will spread the wealth. You’re in a great spot over the long term average to get big events. And like you said, not like it’s been a total shutout. 2’ OTG is still big time!

I’ll second that, great stuff

Congrats!! Love it when a chase works out. And being in a band like you’ve been in is just a phenomenal experience.

Fixed it for you...If you're not in it now, you must be close enough to smell it...

Yes, it is. Heaviest snow of the day here now.
