  1. It definitely matters. Ice limits the natural process of LES. The less moisture is available when there is ice coverage. The reason why the best bands in history are over the tug is because of the 3 lake connection. It grabs moisture from 3 lakes and pounds it on the tug. The greater the amount of available moisture the greater the potential band strength.
  2. Those are some hefty rates right there. Looks beautiful.
  3. Can confirm 2 feet in Boston, Colden, Eden, and Holland so far.
  4. Convergence setting up with SW winds near Chat. ridge and NW winds out of Canada! The best events occur when this happens. Can you imagine what this event would have been with a open lake? Would have been Nov 2014 all over again.
  5. If this band doesn't move all day we are going to have insane totals even here.
  6. Looks like convergence setting up right over my place
  7. Besides 2014 this is the craziest event I've ever witnessed in my lifetime I think. I didn't think snowfall rates of 2-4 per hour were possible with 81% frozen lake on Feb. 20th off of Erie.
  8. So with an 80% frozen lake Erie this is what we got overnight around my area. 30" and counting. One of the greatest LES events on a frozen lake in history.
  9. This is from @lakeeffectkid383 friend in Boston. All new snow
  10. This is the most incredible frozen lake Erie LES event in history IMO.
  11. Can someone tell me how in the world my in laws in Eden got 40" of snow overnight with a 80% frozen lake? @LakeEffectKing
  12. Sooo...Eden and Boston got 3 feet overnight and I was 2 miles too north of that band...But it finally made it here!!! Heavy snow!
  13. So a strong LES band formed off 80% frozen lake Erie tonight producing snowfall rates over 3" per. Went chasing as it was just a few miles south of my house. Few Pics.
