CNY-WXFREAK

SW flow out ahead of the clippers downslopes the Finger Lakes and the Rochester Metro area bad!

I hate this pattern, but its a great pattern for Watertown, Buffalo metro and of course the Tug!

broad brushing from this far out.

You all better really enjoy this event cause according to the GEFS winter's just about over after this next transient shot of Bitterly cold air thats accompanied by nothing but cold air cause its too darn cold for the atmosphere to hold any WV, oh well, enjoy!! PNA turns negative again and floods the whole nation with pacific maritime air!

yeah I seen it, but it was the GFS, lol so......

Its so stupid!

I'll tell ya right now, we start seeing these clippers one after another dropping just to our North, like they are, through Ottawa you guys out in WNY are gonna see quite a bit of snow, wow the potenttial! Its super windy out right now, crazy!

Wow your right Wolf as the GFS and GGEM go WSW right after system heads off to our NE and it does it quick, interesting!

Hows that even possible with a SLP to our East? weird, but I've seen weirder, with the weather! Thats interesting and would love to see it unless once the system passes, the one from Mon-Tues, heads to the ESE instead of NE like the models are showing.

Nah, very doubtful, lol as mine lasted 10 and now the suns out dimmly and will soon see true Sun as these 2 bands really get going and it does nothing but blow exhaust in between so the next few days will be cold and boring except for the 10-20 minute squall we'll get in between now and then, lol!

Synoptically we don't snow, we automatically rain or pixie dust, lol!

GFS is confused, lol!

If that GB band, that's connected to Superior band connects to the Ontario band rates can exceed 3"hr, easily!

I can see KSYR easily getting 3-6" from this band as its starting to head back that way as it speeds by me, lol!

Too bad its not gonna last more than 5 minutes, what a tease as I'd rather not see it at all!

This is absolutely NUTS as I'm getting pounded, RLMAO, with close to white-out conditions at times, WOW just incredible!

Super heavy snow from Erie, thanks for the lovin E! Mesoscale Discussion 0053 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0919 AM CST Fri Jan 25 2019 Areas affected...portions of western and northern New York Concerning...Heavy snow Valid 251519Z - 252015Z SUMMARY...Lake Effect snow bands will bring periods of heavy snow and reduced visibility today across parts of western and northern NY. Snowfall rates around 1 inch per hour are possible and may extend downstream into parts of central and northern. DISCUSSION...West-southwest surface to 850mb flow is noted in surface observations as well as 12z regional RAOBs and 88-D VWP data. This has resulted in two lake effect snow bands stretching across parts of western and northern NY. Heavy snow with rates around 1 inch per hour has been reported this morning, with heavy to moderate snow stretching well downstream of the immediate lake shore areas. In fact, 1 inch per hour rates were reported in Madison County around 14z. Westerly flow rapidly increases from around 10-20 kt at the surface to near 40 kt around 1 km. Favorable orientation across the lakes and strong low level flow should allow these snow bands to continue through the day and persist well downstream toward the western Adirondacks. It is possible that closer to Lake Ontario and Lake Erie that snowfall rates may even exceed 1 inch per hour at times. Slight shifts to the north or south of low level winds may result in some small shifts in the heaviest snow bands, but the current location of the two bands impacting the MCD area should remain fairly steady-state through the day. As a result, anyone traveling north-south across western into central/northern NY could see rapid changes in snow intensity and visibility. In addition to these heavy lake effect bands, the surface pressure gradient is quite strong across the region and surface winds around 15-25 mph with some higher gusts will be possible for much of the day. Conditions are not expected to improve until later tonight.

That band off Erie is just amazing as it is seeding itself, lol! If you look at it on satellite you will clearly see two feeder bands merging into one at the coast as it extends inland to almost Albany, lol!

Here comes the CF starting to approach the western end of the Lake so we'll see how it affects the band. Usually, the CF would carry the whole band off the lake completely, and it falls apart as it gets separated from its moisture source.

Hey CNYwx we're gonna get it in about 20-30 minutes and I don't know how long it'll be around for either, lol!

You'll see as the CF makes its way later this morning it'll start to head South for 3-6hrs and Pound Central Oswego counties with ground Zero being over you! This is what I'm thinkin and I'm stickin to it, lol!

This effin band off Erie went 3 miles to my North and now it'll start to head East towards me but it couldn't stop over me right, it had to go right past me, damnit!

Matt your gonna get crushed later on this evening!

Lake Erie is showing the Cuse some lovin this mornin!

The sun shining here, I wanna shoot myself, lol!
