Hey, Lake effect snow friends! I have about a foot and a half on the ground here in the Tug. Had to shovel the roof off today as over half of that pack is extremely heavy snow from last week's system. Looking like we will have a band hit us on Wednesday.

Still got that volleyball net up haha

Never know when you might be able to play..... 

Hey, all! Still lots of snow here. Actually had to shovel off the roof today.

Went down to the Rome/Utica area....there is a HUGE difference in snow depth there compared to my house 40 minutes away from Rome.

So much less down there..

Matt! That is awesome. You are in an awesome area, it’s gonna be great to live vicariously through you!
I have a buddy with a camp on Brantingham Lake, you very far from there?

Thanks! Weatherbo, from the Great Lakes sub, inspired me when he moved to the UP of Michigan.

Tons of snow here, and much closer to family in PA.

I am located right on the Oswego/Lewis county line...northwest of Osceola and east of Redfield..right between the two.

Beautiful Matt, gorgeous pics!

Thanks! I am blessed to work, live, and play :) in a beautiful area.

Sorry to hear about your mud. Bleck. Unfortunately, we may even have to go through mud season up here the week after Thanksgiving.

Good morning, all! Pound town city here. Just got down plowing...and big fatties coming down out of the sky. 6 additional inches since yesterday afternoon after the storm. Flake size last night was unimpressive. Much better this morning. This additonal snow is HEAVY and wet. Hard on the plow.

@TugHillMatt

Make sure you're keeping track of your totals. You live in the snowiest place east of the rockies, we want good records of that! 

 

I was going to do that...thanks for the reminder/accountability.

Working toward the knees...

Matt looks like hes gettin pounded, are u Matt?

Not pounded...but moderate, wind-driven snow. The heaviest returns are just to my north. Should get into those with the wind shift.

Models pushed that warm lake air to far inland, at least at this current time ..

 

So so so glad I moved from a Lake Plain!!!! Almost 10 degrees colder here than Oswego!

Good chance winds veer WNW eventually as seen on several SR models..Albeit BL temps are borderline..

Wow, that would be almost a foot for me with ratios of 10:1.

I can't wait for a big event! It will be my first one here.

Hrrr trending a little colder, keeping temperatures around 33/34..

1”-2” verbatim, more obviously towards Matt, let’s see how this pans out..

Snowing pretty good now with hardly anything on radar..

Nice. I am right on the Lewis County line, so I am JUST in that darkest blue.

Dumping snow again! Funny that the WWA doesn't start til 6, as we are getting several inches this afternoon.

Hope you Buffalo folks get a surprise.

I measured this morning when I got to work. 14 inches...and now a couple more late this morning and currently with big Lake Effect Fluffers.

Probably around a foot here, and they already have the roads scraped down to the surface. They know how to do snow here! Life goes on as usual here on the Tug.

All snow here...how many inches per hour would you say the rate is falling over your way matt

Hey, Matt. I would say probably 2" per hour. Picked up an inch just since 1:30'

Just pouring snow. Up to 6 inches!

?? how come in all these nws snowfall maps they have all the outlying lakeshore communitites with blank...that has to be a glitch when drawing up the maps

It's just the program they use.

This has definitely been a tough system for meteorologists. Lots of goofy temperature profiles and banding, etc... My hometown of Lancaster, PA was supposed to get 1 to 3 and then rain. Post after post from my friends on FB showed they got a half foot with sleet on the bottom and top. People sitting on highways for 5 to 7 hours.

All this talk of pingers, and seeing Rome has changed over, I just had to go outside and check...All snow. Big snowflakes, with about 5 inches...4 of those coming in the past couple hours.

Looks like Rochester is doing really well! 9 inches and still snow? That is way more than you were to get. Enjoy! I could be looking at double digits when I wake up.

Practically stopped snowing here. Looks like eastern Oswego county is under a reforming dry slot. Ugh. Downsloping from the higher elevation of the Tug??

Nice looking map! I like...

Bummer for you folks along the Lake Plains...

I think Freak telling everybody to calm down is hilarious. You are a bit animated, buddy...can tell from the short time I have been on here. :P Love your passion though.

Waiting for it start here on the Tug. With the snow and cold we have had the past week, there is a nice frozen base to build upon.
