You get a different game experience without the fans.. Like the sound of the bat, players celebrating in the dugout, the game feels more real lol

Three hours a night I get to escape what's going on the world watching the yankees.. What else should we do ? Lol Follow CNN and fox news all day..Not trying to attack anyone but sports is sports lol With or without fans..

Yeah, here's the article.. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/31177639/washington-nationals-opener-vs-new-york-mets-postponed-due-covid-19-issues

Flakes are huge right now, starting to cover the grass..

Some big fat flakes falling on the backside, would be nice if it dropped a couple degrees lol Sitting just above freezing (34°)..

Just a coating on the deck this morning, starting to get a little wrap around moisture, mixing with some graupel..

Expect a lull in the precipitation across Western New York late this afternoon into this evening, with rain showers only occurring mainly east of Rochester. In the upper levels, sharpening mid-level trough over western Great Lakes takes on negative tilt as it slides across lower Great Lakes on Thu. As this occurs, sfc low pressure wave over southeast US this afternoon will close off and deepen as it lifts along the Mid Atlantic coast late tonight, then further as it tracks along the New Enland coast on Thu. System is trending farther east, so have lowered QPF and resultant snow amounts, as now appears that secondary wave of precip that is just developing now and that lifts across the region late tonight will mainly impact Finger Lakes to eastern Lake Ontario. Even here though, amounts have trended down. As far as headlines, kept things status quo for now. Certainly marginal snow amounts expected later tonight Genesee valley with higher amounts east of there. If trends continue, then could see far western tier of current headlines being dropped, at least from the synoptic snow alone tonight. However, behind the system on Thu there will still be lake enhanced snow based on soundings which show moisture to H85-H7 and H85 temps dropping to -10C to -12C and Lake Ontario water temps 41F/+5C. There is also a hint of re-inforcing trough coming through during the day. Snow showers on Thu will likely be not as widespread in coverage, but will still have potential for result in reduced visibility at times. Whether if the snow misses tonight, the lake enhancement on Thu would be enough to keep the headline up for Genesee valley is debatable, but will let later shifts make that call since the synoptic surge of precip/snow is only just starting to form with the echoes seen in CONUS radar over southern IL and IN associated with sharp shortwave rounding the base of the larger scale trough.

European is weak sauce, most see snow showers just not much accumulation..

Little less than 1/2" of rain this morning, finished the month with 4.60" of liquid..

Here was last night european.. We'll see what it shows at 12z..

Few inches overnight still possible depending on wether SR guidance or global models verify..

Well at least we have been getting plenty of rain lol

Yup lol Nam pushes west, gfs goes east..

Binghamton map .

Late season snow for parts of the region Wed night into Thu... Upper trough from western Great Lakes to central Mississipi river Valley approaches late Wed. Associated front now looks quicker to cross. Result is when next surge of widespread precip returns to the region from the southwest Wed evening on nose of upper level jet and in deformation zone to west of developing coastal low, it will be cold enough for snow from the start. Models still have differences with intensity of the widespread surge of mainly snow Wed night. Given the strength of approaching negative tiltled trough and deepening sfc-H85 low along New England coast, like the higher QPF of Canadian, though could not go completely to that solution as it did differ by 0.10-0.20 compared to NAM and recent available runs of the GFS and ECMWF. Net result was an increase in snow from Southern Tier to especially the western and northern Finger Lakes on Wed night. Still appears that far western NY will be on the far western fringe of this system. Headlines will likely eventually be in place across much of our forecast area except maybe far western NY, but main issue is where to place a winter storm watch for the potential for heaviest snow. Greatest certainty for that currently is east of Lake Ontario closer to track of coastal low and with added boost from upslope and lake enhanced snow on Thu. Seeming likely that higher terrain areas by late Thu night will see over 10 inches with lower terrain areas seeing at least 7 inches, if not more. Also will include Allegany, Livingston, Monroe, Ontario, Wayne and northern Cayuga counties given synoptic snow on Wed night followed by lake enhanced snow on Thu into Thu evening given a favorable sharp cyclonic cold and moist flow to the west of departing low and within the upper level trough axis and as H85 temps drop to -10 to -12c in the afternoon. Though daytime disruptive effects with higher sun angle could limit widespread snow coverage, expect pockets of those area to see moderate to heavy snow at times on Thu. Lake enhanced snow and upslope forced snow gradually diminishes through Thu night into Fri, but did increase pops for higher terrain of Southern Tier and east of Lake Ontario all the way through Fri as sufficient low-level moisture and more than sufficiently cold temps persist as upper low only slowly pulls away from the region while upstream ridge is still barely entering the western Great Lakes. Overall once the snow starts off, it will not end until later Friday or Friday evening, so a late season and long duration event it appears. Otherwise, other than snow, will be chilly and blustery early Spring period with highs on Thu in the upper 20s to lower 30s, nearly 20F below normal, with highs on Fri still in the 30s for most areas.

Watches issued

Euro and Ukmet maybe a little east but relatively steady..

New map

Latest run of the GEFS.

While they are at it legalize mobile sports betting lol Nj makes a killing from that.. You can bet on horses in NY but not sports lol (online)..

GFS and CMC FWIW

Here comes that late game shift lol Not much but makes a difference..
