On to the next one...

Is LE gonna fire up at all??

32.2 here. Light snow.

Dendrites finally getting a little larger. Snowing here since 9:30 and grass still showing.

Noticed the WWAs only run through 10pm Sat, and the WSWs run through 1AM Mon! Can't imagine why they wouldn't extend the WWAs through at least Sunday - esp. Wayne Cty east to see those 8-12" totals.

Wow, BUF certainly responded to the further south LP in 12z runs.

Oswego-Jefferson-Lewis- Including the cities of Oswego, Watertown, and Lowville 1008 AM EST Fri Jan 17 2020 ...WINTER STORM WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM SATURDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH SUNDAY EVENING... ...WIND CHILL ADVISORY IS CANCELLED... * WHAT...Heavy snow possible. Total snow accumulations of 12 to 24 inches possible. Winds could gust as high as 40 mph, producing blowing and drifting snow.

Bare ground with an original 3-5" WWA. Hmmm.

Snowing pretty good on the west side of ROC. Seneca Ave.

Yeah, makes little sense.

It's rare to see them this bold so far out...usually it's the opposite.

That's a nice setup - if it happens. The lake is primed for a good NNW event.

KBUF updated their LR AFD? Mainly snow now... The corresponding surface low located over the central U.S. on Friday evening will track northeast passing through the area on Saturday. With the entrance of this system, precipitation chances will increase from west to east. Most of this precipitation will fall in the form of snow. The low pressure system looks to track east/northeast through the area on Saturday. With the passage of the low, its corresponding cold front will fill colder air into the area keeping the widespread precipitation as snow throughout the day on Saturday and Saturday night. As it looks now, there could possibly be strong to damaging winds along and behind the trailing cold front, however this depends on the track of the low. Albeit, this still has time to change so we will have to keep our eye on it as we move forward.

Think you need to look at the Aleutian LP to see how the downstream reacts.

Agreed, fun to read and discuss.
