Band still dumping in Village of Hamburg and North Boston. The heaviest stuff I ran into was pushing 3" per. I'm just a little bit too far north just light snow with this batch.

SICK CHASE

Getting smoked!!

That is one of strongest bands off Erie this year or close to it.

New run

That band off of Erie is going NUTS I'm going chasing

Both lakes on fire tonight

2-3" per hour near @lakeeffectkid383 new house. I'm about to go chase that thing. I think it makes it up here soon though.

I’m thinking the band is back here around midnight

Jackpot over @lakeeffectkid383 new house

Rgem ftw!! Lake snow warning with Lake Erie frozen gotta love it!!

Wind shift for Erie county folks is just sw of London Ontario. Coming with several waves of moisture. Going to be a fun night.

I think you want relatively light winds In all big les events.

Yeah that was great year for central ny. Also a big event in buffalo 42” in 3 days over central Erie county.

Almost at 3” of new snow already. Still snowing but band slightly south last few frames. Should move back north next few hours.

Been a long time since a good clipper pattern. Those are the best for us as well.

It seems the western side of the lake has more Lake Effect then the Eastern side this year. That has to be a first.

Its Feb 19th after 4 weeks of freezing cold and we're still able to get a band like this

Updated Map

The RGEM is going to be right here. Moderate to heavy snow giant flakes.

Erie band should drift south next few hours then back north overnight. Strongest part will be during overnight hours into tomorrow morning. However, if convergence boundary sets up across southtowns like it sometimes does it might park itself where it is until tomorrow afternoon. Ice cover throws a wrench into forecasting wind direction.

Deep winter across the Eastern Lakes as well, despite missing every single synoptic event north, south, east, and west this year. My largest synoptic event this year was 6.8" on Christmas day...Just passed 80" on the season. Thank You Lake Erie!

Use this radar to see ontario wind direction. Check out that piece north of Wilson. That's going to hit you guys in central ny. Possible mesolow forming as well. https://www.wunderground.com/wundermap
