Buffalo Bumble Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Thats 3" an hour stuff at the airport. Yep, I can verify that. I would say not quite 3"/hr. here a couple miles west of airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayuud11 Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Yep, I can verify that. I would say not quite 3"/hr. here a couple miles west of airport. 2.2" over by the west side as of 6PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AppsRunner Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Looks like Syracuse airport may have been the winner off Ontario with 15.4" since yesterday night. Still not exactly sure why BUF was thinking 24-30" for Fulton, but either way a learning experience. Good to see Buffalo getting real snow after an abysmal start this year.

Damn I'm good. https://www.facebook.com/NWSBuffalo/?fref=nf Heavy #LakeEffectSnow has moved into the city of #Buffalo right on cue. We just measured 1" of new snow between 5:28pm and 5:50pm, which is about a 3"/hr snowfall rate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, they got that much at Syracuse, judging by radar it didn't look that intense or long duration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danno Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Airport is about 10 miles north of the city. Makes a huge differance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthBuffaloSteve Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 2 inches here from 5-6. On and off heavier bursts at the moment. Is the initial band already losing connection?

lakeeffectkid383 Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 The area about 5-10 miles east of the airport (around Clarence or just south) has been getting raked for the last 1hr+ with some 35dbz pixels showing up on radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airport is about 10 miles north of the city. Makes a huge differance. This is true. The airport saw 13.5" since midnight today, and snow ended right around 1PM for them. That translates to about 1"/hr average but I'm sure there was some heavier snow during the morning into rush hour. While it wasn't strong for LES standards, it was intense enough and relatively stable over Northern Onondaga county which allowed for those totals. For reference, Oswego saw about 2" yesterday from the squalls and another 4" today as the LES lifted north for a total of just under 6". We'll probably see 12" totals along I-81 north of Pulaski tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthBuffaloSteve Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Looks like things are picking back up your way ayuud. Can't get a feel what that band wants to do.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk It's too bad that low NW of us is wrecking havoc on the band, if we didn't have that who knows what the actual rates would've been.
