Some pretty heavy rates as the low strengthens

Top analog April 1st, 1989

The storm starts at 1-2 AM weds across far WNY and goes until about 2 pm. So technically a little over 2 days away. Most of the snow falls overnight and early morning Weds

GEM with a big hit too.

-20 to -25 departures

GFS gets everyone involved with a WSW criteria snowfall. The temps are cold enough where I don't think this will be just a higher elevation snowfall.

That gets me to 100

Huge hit for all, temp around 30 for entire area

GFS going to be pretty far SE with a 1 in 20-25 year airmass for this time of year

ENS

Biggest hit yet

I'm ready for the roaring 20s take 2.

GEFS are way SE of OP run.

GEFS favor WNY with a pretty huge signal too, one of the best of the year lol

Yeah, most of my clients got them. I work at a large bank and we adapted quickly. Most of the smaller businesses 1-3 employees were the ones hurt the most. They were too late/or didn't know how to go through the process. It was quite complicated in the first few months.

I work with these businesses daily and many got more from the 3 PPP distributions then they would have received in a reduced Covid crowd the last 12 months. Even with 100% occupancy, I doubt many restaurants reach that point during the last 12 months. You should see how much some of these restaurants have in their accounts when they usually are just breaking even.

UK is way SE, still way too early for consensus.

4.8" to 100 lets get it

Buffalos biggest May storm: 1989 May 7th-8th…A late season snowstorm dropped up to twelve inches of snow across the western southern tier, Niagara Frontier and the Finger Lakes area. At Buffalo just under eight inches was recorded while at Rochester just over 10 inches fell. The snowfall established many new weather records for both cities. The snow covered the entire ten county area. The heavy, wet snow downed power lines and trees which took down more power lines when they fell. As lines fell, power poles were snapped. Nearly 13,000 customers were without electricity in much of Orleans and parts of northeast Genesee and western Monroe counties. Numerous scattered minor outages were also reported. Some roofs collapsed from the weight of the snow. Plows and salters were called out to clear roadways, though much of the snow was melting as it fell.

GFS came SE, that is a strengthening storm, cold temps too. If it hits at night it has a chance.
