Looks like the weeklies are a super torch for February. They haven't been that great, so lets hope they are wrong.

Lets have a record wintry February and then March 2012 so I can open my pool early and float around sippin on my trulys.

KBUF has reported at least a trace of snow everyday this month with measurable snow on 14 of 19 days. https://www.weather.gov/wrh/Climate?wfo=buf

Stay away from our coaches wolf.

Its a different world up there in the winter. I've done 6 winter high peaks so far, hoping to do another 1-2 this year.

Lots of snow up in the high peaks

I've done the maid of the mist a few times but never the cave of the winds. I'll try to go there this summer.

Snowiest Januarys in Buffalo. Right now we are at 44.6". About to crack the top 10 with 13 days left.

That arctic front should be pretty strong on Sunday. I'd expect a pretty strong Lake enhanced band to drift from north to south. Even low res GFS is showing it, something to watch.

Sneaky potential on Sunday for a few inches too

Euro has a strong clipper followed by decent snowstorm next week.

41 at KBUF, allowed me to get my driveway down to pavement

It froze during the really cold 2013-2014 winter pretty extensively https://www.cbsnews.com/pictures/frozen-niagara-falls/3/

Ive never even heard of this storm, such a weird track https://wtov9.com/news/local/70th-anniversary-of-ohio-valleys-strongest-winter-storm

It did okay but didn't catch on nearly as quickly as the GFS did. The UKIE was by far the worst model and not sure how it ranks 2nd best in verification scores as its consistently terrible.

Looks good for another month or so

We had thundersnow near Niagara falls but this report was 5.8" of snow in one hour.

Jan 1978 blizzard was 951 mb

congrats on the storm! Highest total from WNY ended up being 25.5", most impressive part of this storm was this observation. https://kamala.cod.edu/ny/latest.nous41.KBUF.html Couple videos from the storm.

One last thought on this storm. The GFS nailed the NW trend a few days ahead of every model and within 24-48 hours the NAM/RGEM nailed the placement of heaviest snowband. The GEFS were completely worthless and the OP GFS had a consistent track for 4-5 days before the storm hit.

Going to be chilly. No way we go cold and dry for 2 weeks straight in January with warm lakes. I like the pattern for those SE of Ontario vs NE of Erie.

Place to be is in southeast this winter
