We’ll probably end up with more from this Sunday surprise than we will from the storm tonight, lol. 

Coming down pretty good now with nice sized flakes. Temperature is dropping but still at 34 so it’s having a hard time accumulating. 

At least the sun is setting so it will have a better chance to accumulate.

Looks like i may be busy clearing snow this week down here in Hannibal, then again wait and see i guess. 

Let’s hope so since I’m basically downwind from you.

March 1st today! Heard the birds chirping this morning. It's coming.  

March 10th is when average highs start to be in the 40s at Buffalo. 

We can still hope for one big snowstorm but as we go deeper into March you realize we’re fighting a losing battle to the change of seasons. 

Visible satellite view of Lake Erie and Lake Ontario this afternoon. Erie is almost completely ice covered while Ontario is mostly ice free.

It seems to me that the problem with this storm isn’t the track but the fact that it seems the heaviest precipitation is confined very close to the center of the low. 

12Z Euro has a 986 low over Cape Cod on Monday morning. 

What a gorgeous day - deep blue sky, warm almost March sun, fresh snow on the ground!  Here’s a pictures of frozen Oneida Lake at Oneida Shores Park.

KBUF now up to 107.1” on the season and they definitely have a good chance of beating last years total of 112”. 2 above average seasons in a row now and this winter has the potential to be well above normal if we can get into the 125”+ range ... 

After 7.3 inches yesterday, KSYR is now up to 97.4 inches for the season. Syracuse should get more snow from Sunday’s storm than Buffalo so the gap should narrow even more. 

5.4 inches here. I think I was between the heavier returns that were just to my south and the greater amounts over the Tug. 

Just over an inch here so far. 

Snow has picked up here. Ksyr reported an inch between noon and 1.

Big hit on euro for Sunday into monday

Low moves from Arkansas at 12Z Sunday to the Maine coast by 12 Z Monday. Looks like an ideal track for us.

Mom got results back today. Stage 4 nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Rare form of cancer for this region of the world. Never smoked.

My prayers are with your mom, you and your family. Hopefully there’s a good plan to attack this. Is she going to Roswell?

Hardly any wind, the snow is falling almost straight down. 

Snowing steadily now. Flake size is decent.

Even with a temperature of 12 degrees, the roads are staying wet because of I would imagine the strong almost beginning of March Sun angle because the roads are wet and it's 12 degrees and it's snowing nicely nice lake size and everything so that should tell everybody something.

There is also a large amount of residual road salt on the roads from previous storms. That being said we are getting to the point in the season where it will be difficult to accumulate on road surfaces because of the increasing insolation. 

Snow has started here. 

Virga storm here. Dew point 2. 

Actually the GEM has 4 storms affecting the northeast over the next week starting with today’s event!

Local met Cejka on WIVB just spoke of another storm of at least this magnitude late sunday and sunday night...not seeing anything on the models...

They just talked about it on The Weather Channel. The Euro has a decent sized storm moving into the northeast while the GFS just has a flat wave with some post frontal snow. 

Did you see where last week there was a 200+ kt jet streak at about 39,000 ft. over Pennsylvania. An international flight heading to Europe got caught up in it and they measured the plane’s ground speed at over 800 mph!
