Even the 9 in 10 chance snowmaps from NWS appear to have busted 50% low. Unless a few inches of backend snow rematerialize.

Doubtful, lol!

I'm still snow so drive 6 miles to your East Phoenix, lol.

vis down big time but its blowing so....

Its still snow here but am expecting it any second

It was always forecasted to do so, so it was no surprise to me

Best event for me so far this yr and I bet CNYwx is thinking the same so I'n satisfied!

What a joke! 

Not at all as its still pounding here so its not over yet, lol!

Lets see how long we can hang on, lol!

Yeah I'd give it about 30 more minutes and we go over to a pounding sleet show then eventually ZR, yuck!

Its a commin, lol, but it was inevitable. I'd love to know where these NWS guys get their totals from or their maps, lol, cause their just awful!

It actually looks like the flakes have gotten smaller but still pouring snow here. 

That tells me that mix line is nowhere near us but I could be wrong

I'll know the taint is near when the flakes dramatically change into parachutes, lol, and not nice small dendrites!

The winds here are just crazy as well, perhaps we're having our very own snowstorm CNY, lol!

Stay away taint, lol!

Just a few more hrs, lol!

What do you think, Freak, 2 inches per hour right now?

Yeah, I'd definitely say 2" as it's just blinding right now, lol!  Complete whiteout at times with 0 vis so I wouldn't want to be on the roads right now around here, lol!

So the faster advancement of the transition zone north will magically halt soon.  Good to know.

Put it this way bro, while its snowing I'll enjoy it and I won't worry every 2 seconds about the transition zone.  I don't think it makes it here as quick as everyone is saying thats all I'm saying.

Its almost too good to be true that its snowing this heavily here right now, lol!

If we could only hold onto this snowfall rate until 3 we would be over 6 inches easily. Unfortunately it looks like the taint line is advancing pretty rapidly. It’s crazy because I’m only 16 degrees at the surface. 

We're fine bro for at least a couple more hrs I think but I don't know after that.  Thicknesses look good so w'll see.

No way, not by 1 anyway, but maybe you're right.

This tells me otherwise as the sleet must be following the yellow contour and thats a ways away but maybe not.

and definitely not with this surface map.

moderate snow downtown SYR right now.  Vis about 1/2-3/4 mile.  Looks like we are on track for 4-5"

From KBGM updated AFD:

Dual-pol radar depicts the mixed precipitation line entering
our southwestern forecast area at this time. The NamNest is
doing a good job with the changeover, and based on the latest
model output we are speeding up the changeover by 1-2 hours
across much of the I-81 corridor and areas northeastward.

The quicker changeover necessitated we lower the snowfall
amounts from the Twin Tiers southward.

Yeah, thank God we're well North of the twin tiers 

The snow is so heavy that I can't see the house thats about 350 meters away, nuts!  It looks like its just coming down in sheets, lol!

In two hours you'll be calling this the biggest joke ever and ranting and raving.  hahaha

No I will not, hell no cause if what I'm experiencing even lasts 3-4 more hrs, then I'll be happy!  You've had a nice event this yr, we haven't, so enjoy your rain, lol!

Where are you guys up North at?
