This is the greatest model porn in a decade. 961 MB is a Cat 3 Hurricane pressure with a lake snow band. It actually gets down to 959. 

 

Most isobars ever.

Rochester still hasnt hit freezing yet this fall so the growing season continues on.  Pretty wild that I'm still picking peppers from the garden.  We might not even hit it this weekend and if that happens looks like we'll go another 7 days before the next chance.  

Your trees still holding most of their leaves? Around here you can tell who has had a decent frost and who hasnt...

Impressive looking storm on the 18z gfs..

Few degrees colder and that would be a legit blizzard. 

So looks like next week is interesting one way or another...

I believe the wrinkle in the jet came from the typhoon which can cause anomalous cold really early. 

Just like 2014! Lol not saying anything close to that will happen but that event was also set off by a strong typhoon.

Anyone notice noaa never predicts cold anywhere ever. 

Hopefully not the result of political influence...

Hopefully the leaves are off by then if this happens!

One of these days were going to get a storm like this and all of these standing dead ash are going to come down. I had three come down during last falls long duration event, plus a huge cherry

Wasn’t there a typhoon that set off the downstream ripple prior to one of our prior early season events? Not saying that will happen here but I vaguely remember there being a very powerful typhoon with a similar track to hagibis that led to snow here...

nm found it. The nov 14 event. https://buffalonews.com/2014/12/04/super-typhoon-western-pacific-shouldnt-cause-lake-effect-snow-time/

the streamers that keep pouring on me here in west falls look like lake effect to my untrained eye.

Things looking interesting...

Would love to see a chart to show how many broken high temps vs low temps we've had the last few decades. 

I'd also like to see a chart that shows frequency of "epic' lake effect events. Seems like we have had quite a few in the past 20 years, starting with the crippling storm the week of thanksgiving in 2000.

This anyone here? An awesome vid. 
 

Even if you could sign up if you hold a view different than the mods they'll simply ban you for a made up rule...

Or threaten to ban you because they think you're someone already banned member when you're clearly not simply because they cant believe someone doesn't share their views on politics.

I'd be happy if we get a repeat of last year just without all the thaws. 

Any of you guys know who runs the politics board? Was just banned for some bs...

Not a whole lot of action there....when is ampol back up????

People like making fun of your weight too much to ban you.  

 

Hopefully Luc1f3r got the link.

Luc1f3r just signed up.

My issue is with all of the alarmists. If someone has to go to an extreme to get my attention, (IE Miami will be gone in a few years,) you're probably full of shit and you're doing nothing to help your cause. Thunberg's rise to fame is just another form of sensationalism to me. On the other hand I cringe just as badly when I hear non-believers of climate change. However I'm not constantly exposed to that as an overreaching sales pitch, the worst of which I probably hear from time to time from Trump. (IE recently denounced the emissions tech in new cars)

16 years ago in college it wasn't as bad as it is now but still bad. So I wrote a paper on climate change and I ultimately landed on a few main points that I still believe after all this time.

Humans are contributing to climate change.

Slowing down is possible but not reversal.

All of the money being spent on subsidizing green energy would better be spent on preparing for higher water levels and temperatures(seawalls, cooling, relocation).

In 100 years we will have figured out fusion. In the mean time build more nuclear.

The one thing I now believe that i didn't 16 years ago is that electric cars will become the dominate mode within the next 10 years. Not because people want to be green but because they simply out perform their gasoline counterparts. That's the same way all of this will pan out as long as capitalism does what is does. Eventually fossil fuels will simply be too expensive, the market will be what ultimately makes everyone more "green."

This will be my fourth winter at my house in clarence after moving from williamsville. I'm hoping to finally get something epic, I think the highest I've seen has been 16" with no drifting.

Enjoy! Because I like the look of the 3-4 week outlook!!! 

cold right?

Where did this rain come from? I'm on my motorcycle today

That's where we are staying. Flying from Toronto-Lima-Cusco. I was told by a friend that just went there to not rent a car, everywhere I've traveled I've always rented. I want to do as much hiking as possible, but worried about the elevation there. 

If you have some cardio in your workout routine you'll be fine. I think you've mentioned before here that you lift, I lift and do minimal (20 mins x 4 weekly) cardio and I was fine with the air in Bogata. 

Was a pretty good light show last night, at least in the Clarence area. 

Any thoughts on possible "Blob" correlation to colder/snowier winters here? Looks like another event similar to 14/15 shaping up out west.
