I was hoping to see something in the works for Sunday that would get me stuck here. The micro climate here (st Lucia)is just as interesting as home, you can see the effects elevation has on rainfall in the vegetation clearly.

Man they just love pushing the global warming thing at every turn. Not a fan of TV Mets trying to push out their own personal ideas on the subject. My only comment on this would be in questioning the starting time point. Why 1970? The late 70s had the coldest winters on record so of course starting there will skew the results to show a more extreme extent. Airport has temp records back to 1940 why not graph a larger sample of years? Maybe because in the late 40s and 50s we had a spell of milder winters that would give a less shock factor result?

This is exactly what I was going to say. You can’t use the coldest ten years in record keeping as your starting point. My next argument would be to ask how much has urbanization heat sink affected this? Much of the area was still farms in the 70s. 

I just want everyone here to get enough snow next week that I cant get down my driveway when i get back from vaca. At least that's what happened last time i was in St Lucia 10 years ago...

Vegas fired Gallant after the Sabres beat them last night...Crazy! They are an expansion team with unprecedented success as a new team. He's a fantastic coach. I like Krueger but would 100% fire him for Gallant. 

Make Krueger GM and Fire botcherall.

I feel horrible for upstate but there is no better time for a storm to nudge north than this weekend when I'll be in Mont Treblant Quebec!  Would love to catch a solid powder day as they have been non-existent on the East Coast this year.  Fingers crossed.  Some of the earlier runs were good for both NY and Quebec, would have loved to see one of them come to fruition.  

I'm also glad as it means I probably wont go through the hell of canceled flights I went through last year trying to get out out of Buffalo Saturday morning...

Its a ways out but anyone have thoughts on timing saturday? I have a 530 am flight to nyc to catch, second leg to st lucia is at 830...

I live in Williamsville off maple just west of transit...i swear every time we have even advisory winds that area you live in loses power. That's crazy.

Ya the previous owner installed a whole home generator for that reason. I’m sure all of the dead ash out here don’t help. My first house was in Williamsville near Westwood and I don’t remember losing power there in 7 years. 

So far just a bunch of kindling on the ground. Our property is full of large dead ash, one of these storms I’m going to have my work cut out for me.

Anyone see the 6z suite from the bi-polar GFS???

In Clarence, near Ransom south of Main. 

We’ve been on backup power since 530, local cell phone tower is having issues as well. Waiting for light to see how much firewood to cut up.

Here's my baby girl next to her favorite brother, who by the way is a stray that just started showing up at my new house..

I think she is also some kind of beagle/hound mix..She is listed as a German Shepherd lol Her mom is all Sheppard but the dad is unknown..She was originally a "guard" dog, so if u want to get kissed to death u know what house to rob lol

Def see the beagle. We rescued ours and did the doggy dna test, 50% st bernard, 25% beagle, 18% great pyr and the rest mut.

I've been married 10 years with no kids. We are both 32 and have to decide pretty quickly if we are having any or not. Spent the last 10 years traveling the world which has been amazing. Kids are a ton of work, even though I don't have any I can see how much work they are. Most of my friends do not have any, its a different generation than our parents. 

Same here, except im 36, celebrating 10 years in St Lucia in a week. Our puppies are our kids, currently have a lab mix and a St Bernard beagle mix. Share the same feelings on people vs dogs as @wolfie09. I can watch a war movie but not marley and me.

Glad to see other couples out their the same, all of our groups of friends have slowly disappeared into their child's lives lol.

If you understand football you'd realise the offense has to have gimmick plays, RPO's and a lot of jet sweeps and the like to be even remotely effective...and per the 75%??? Ryan tannehil just walked into Foxboro and won. If you think for a moment that this team wouldn't have been 10 and 6 or better with 75% or more of the Qb's in this league you're just not being honest. With this D they sport I could see this team being a true super bowl contender with a lot of other qbs in the league. 

Your example of tannehill is exactly why we should stick with Allen. Allen is still developing and needs a better supporting cast. Look what happened when Tannehill got that. 

Just flipped to snow here. Hope it stays that way, everything dusted over pretty quickly. 

We got a dusting here this morning that has already melted. Here's to hoping this lil bit of LES over performs.

So close to being a nice event for wny  Im just hoping we can cover the mud.

Yeah. This pattern blows. This is how we come into January? 
iDK. I saw a time lapse of arctic sea ice coverage since 1980, it’s taken a huge hit. Maybe our weather is truly changing. 
like others said, this seems to be a pattern. If the pattern holds true, we are looking at a good Feb/March. 

I'll take feb 15' please.

Beast of a storm brewing!

How does that not pull down enough cold air for an epic les event

Pretty warm at the moment. Nice patch over 44F  if the band sits anywhere for a while we should see at least shoveable amounts  

Merry Christmas everyone. Here’s hoping Santa brings us some snow ❄️!

It's looked very nice and wintry here all day today. Been snowing lightly, but steadily all day.

Same here, 2" of absolute fluff.

Meanwhile in WNY...

I like it, NWS discussion is having none of it though lol.

Cause its gonna rain, lol, and whoever is praying that somehow the cold air, we so desperately need, will win out over the warmth that's being forecasted because that's not gonna happen cause there is no mechanism to tap it, simple as that! That's not gonna change either in 2 days so.....

Gotcha. I asked because it seems every map being posted here is showing rain to snow, .75” is quite a bit of rain...
