scottmartin49 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 So we have a lake effect snow warning for up to 3 feet of snow off of Ontario and nearly 1 1/2 feet off Erie in this what has been non existent winter and yet look how quiet it is around here. I live 500 miles away and I think I'm more pumped for you guys then you are for yourselves. Come on people lets get excited! I'll believe it when I see it. Strong LES event forecasting is still developing, and too many local busts leave me dubious. Also, too many pieces of the puzzle seem way out at the end of their respective 'fits' required to produce a big event. Mostly, it's probably just that we're more used to it than you; LES is a lot more common an event than RI Nor'easters for instance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNash Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 For my part I'm meh about events that are outside the population centers unless they are off the charts extreme. A *** out of ***** LES event that barely brushes the far southtowns doesn't really register as a ping, even in a nil season like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayuud11 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 BUF radar is down, i see some activity on the CLE radar, I'd give it couple more hours and we should start seeing something lol.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lakeeffectkid383 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 My itch for snow has caused me to book a room from tonight until Sunday in Pulaski, NY. NWS has them down for 18-24" and I'd be thrilled if we saw half of that. I'll be leaving tonight right after work to take the 5 hour journey. Will update you guys when I arrive tonight probably sometime around midnight. I'll make sure to take lots of pics too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lakeeffectkid383 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Yes Ayuud I am driving from Rhode Island. About 5 hours to get there. I think if this were a normal season I wouldn't make a trip but with the way this year is its worth it to see 1' + of snow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloWeather Posted December 18, 2015 Author Share Posted December 18, 2015 I would chase with you if I didn't work tomorrow. Message me on Facebook a buddy of mine who is a met and his met friend are going chasing for a big dog this year. Most likely going to tug, but open to other areas.

southbuffalowx Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 The kid in me wants to drive home and see how much snow falls. The adult in me is telling me to stay on campus and focus on studying for my final. Hopefully this one manages to overperform for the southtowns!

ayuud11 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Just some occasional burst of heavy snow at the angola thruway rest area, if this band doesn't get its act together in half hour I'm heading back home lol.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottmartin49 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 You should just move back Devin, can't survive on 20" a year bro. Twenty inches?!? That's like....ummm, October, dude. I suddenly understand your pain, snow shoveling is my 'winter workout' regime- one ton minimum, each week, December through March. Full Schwarzenegger usually hits in late February...

coh Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 So it looks like BUF recorded its first 0.1" of snow of the season? I guess congratulations are in order, though I was really hoping they'd be able to make it through to the next cold outbreak. If it turns out that all they get is 0.1", that will be a real bummer...

Yes, BUF measured .1 inch this evening. And that looks to be it for maybe the next week or more. Darn band drifted just far enough north for a short time to scrape out .1 inch. Let's see if we can top an inch before Jan 1. Might be tough.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloWeather Posted December 19, 2015 Author Share Posted December 19, 2015 Just had a nice heavy snow shower move through. Total was 3.1" for the event. Some other totals.

Yeah I am kind of bummed KBUF got .1, another week to 10 days would have made the record nearly unbeatable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
