Bands merged and getting some moderate snow with giant flakes. Stuff that accumulates quickly.

I got a good feeling about this one.

Erie is on fire despite 80% ice coverage

Looks like they are riding the RGEM

18Z RGEM

A fresh inch out there already. Just went over 80" on the season.

4-7" here. Consistent light snow outside now, starting to stick. ...WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM 6 PM THIS EVENING TO 10 PM EST SATURDAY... * WHAT...Lake effect snow expected. Total snow accumulations of 4 to 7 inches in the most persistent lake snows.

Yep NW LES off of Ontario are by far the hardest LES to forecast. LES events off of Erie seem to be much easier to forecast. NW winds are easy around here due to orographic lift in the hills south of here.

Lakes will get a major moisture boost from whats over Michigan overnight into tomorrow.

lake coming alive sooner then expected and drifting north!

GFS has it farther south

Most of the WRF models hit here with a good band, not KBUF though.

I've never seen that before. LOL

It has hit here several times this year though. KBUF thinks it will too https://www.weather.gov/buf/winter

blue dot over my house.

He was having a great start of the season, the best he's had with the Sabres. Looks like hes facing a long recovery. He also is a workout junky all summer long in Finland. One of the most fit and healthy Sabres. Really goes to show it can hit anyone. https://www.is.fi/nhl/art-2000007814144.html Ristolainen has been suffering from a bad case of COVID-19 - Says he has gone through every possible symptom. He has asked around the league and no one else has had it this bad. - His oxygen levels had dropped significantly and doing anything at all made him extremely tired -After a couple of days his symptoms got better only to come back in a different form, chest pains for an example. -When he had his chest pains, he felt like his heart is going to rip in two when walking up the stairs. Says couple of nights he felt like he wasn't sure if he's going to wake up. -"I got healthy papers from the doctors but physically I am in such a bad shape that i have a long road ahead of me until I'm fit to play." (Despite this he also says that he can maybe see himself coming back some time next week, but not certain) He sarcastically remarks that of course if he's going to get it, he'd get it when he's playing the best hockey of his career.

I just went through the first 15 pages of that thread and wow the models were so far off. It was locked in within 48 hours, pretty crazy.

Pretty severe dusting taking place here. Theme of the winter dusting on dusting.
