Thinksnow18 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 I still feel that the lower elevations "accums" will be less than forecast by the end of the event due to melting...snowing in Williamsville now, barely anything sticking and yet on a board they will be able to measure it.

wolfie09 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 We will start accumulating better after dark.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxNoob Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 32 and light to moderate snow at my house (1200 ft asl) about a slushy inch on grass so far. Just drove 7 miles down to Ithaca was 37 and rain. Elevation will be key for this one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie09 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Hrrr has been consistent the last couple runs developing a stronger band in the southern part of the county, later this afternoon/evening.. How much of that accumulates is another story.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rochesterdave Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 NWS has no handle on this. It’s gonna be what you see is what you get. 34 and snow in ROC. Actually a bit cooler than I expected at this time. Its a solid set up for ROC and SYR. We will know by midnight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were never supposed to get any accumulation at lower elevations til after dark last night. Call was for dusting to an inch at best by 5pm today. We’ll see how tonight unfolds and we may end up with nothing again but I know up until now nothing was forecasted to stick at lower elevations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie09 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 NWS definitely added more mixing and warmer temperatures to the forecast.. Still all snow forecasted here but just a few miles west R/S the entire event.. Same goes for the Fulton area, much more mixing introduced.. My forecast went from 5”-10” to 3”-7”.. Snowing pretty good out at the moment, big fat wet flakes.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vortmax Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Starting to stick in Ontario now (about 3 miles inland). Earlier than expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CNY_WX Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 After changing to rain during the mid day the precipitation has gone back to snow and it’s starting to accumulate. Temperature is back down to 33 and I see no problem getting to freezing once the sun sets. If it snows at this rate overnight we should have several inches by morning.

rochesterdave Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 This is the time when I usually get real anxious and call the storm off. Gonna stay strong this time. We always get it on the backside. This is a good setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie09 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Something is potentially gonna form soon over the Fulton area.. Both the HRRR and high Rez Canadian dump 3/4”+ by early morning.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Syrmax Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Its unreal how variable the possible outcomes are for most locations with this event, from model to model. Best to keep expectations in check unless you have some elevation going for you. Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Additional snow accumulations of 3 to 6 inches in the valleys and 6 to 12 inches in the higher elevations. Winds gusting as high as 30 mph. * WHERE...Southern Cayuga, Onondaga, Madison, Southern Oneida and Cortland Counties. * WHEN...Snow will continue through the afternoon with heavier snow expected tonight and Wednesday morning. Snow intensities will be less than 1 inch per hour during the afternoon with between 1 and 2 inches per hour tonight and Wednesday morning. Snow will taper in intensity Wednesday afternoon. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Travel could be very difficult to impossible mainly over the higher terrain areas. Areas of blowing snow could significantly reduce visibility. The hazardous conditions could impact the morning or evening commute. Interstate 81 between Syracuse and Marathon could become very dangerous especially over the higher terrain. Wow, just woke up, and I wasn't expecting this, but itrs certainly great news! There's a ton of moisture coming our way the next 36hrs or so! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie09 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 The euro keeps us below freezing from now until about 8 am when most of us warm above freezing east of L. Ontario.. That 1-2 degrees can make a world of difference.. Starting to accumulate more efficiently.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie09 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 East of Lake Ontario...amounts will be substantially lower given a more unfavorable northwesterly flow regime...however most areas there should still pick up an additional 3 to 6 inches...with localized amounts of up to 10 inches possible across the Tug Hill/ western Adirondack foothills due to orographic enhancement. Given the above and the latest available snowfall reports for this region... have elected to stick with the existing Winter Weather Advisory there for now. Southeast of Lake Ontario...the environment will also become marginally cold enough for some areas of weak lake enhancement to develop this evening and then continue through the rest of the night and Wednesday...with this likely supporting accumulations of 3 to 6 inches from eastern Monroe county eastward to southern Oswego county. Given marginal surface temperatures Wednesday afternoon... the bulk of the accumulation should come between tonight and the first half of Wednesday...for which yet another Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect. Outside of the above areas...the rest of the region should see a general 2-4"/3-5" between now and the end of Wednesday...with marginal temperatures again helping to keep the bulk of any accums confined to tonight and Wednesday morning. In addition to the snow... gusty westerly to northwesterly winds are still expected through much of the period...which will allow for at least some blowing snow at times. Given the combination of this and the expected snowfall amounts above...Winter Weather Advisories also remain in effect for most of the rest of the region...save for Niagara and Orleans counties where overall snowfall amounts should be lowest.

lakeeffectkid383 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 I think from Hamburg to South Buffalo sees less then 2” of additional accumulation for the whole event. I think northtowns see 2-4”. Flow is terrible for Southtowns until you get elevation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
