Thinksnow18 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Update...intensity is moderate to almost +S and looks to be for about an hour or so with banding off Ontario and probably upstream from Georgian Bay. Will definitely get to if not over 6" on this pace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY-WXFREAK Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 If the temp was 3F degrees colder we'd be looking at quite a bit of snow, that's a fact but it is still November and with this event we're nearing 35 for the month and the avg for Nov is 9.6", lol! +200% for the month of November, lol Lets just hope Dec-Jan-Feb follow suit.

CNY_WX Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 I just measured 4.6 inches. I don’t know how accurate my LE will be because the snow just pileup on the opening to the cylinder. I’m going to let the snow melt as is and what goes in the tube will be counted and what falls outside won’t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY-WXFREAK Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 I just took a measurement and I've eclipsed the 6" mark at 6.6" so not bad for overnight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had 5.3" snow and 0.71" liquid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thinksnow18 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Approaching 7" if not at it...been moderate snow since about 5:30 with good flake size. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Bumble Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 About 5” OTG here. That was my first measurement so storm total likely around 6”. “Storm” snow falling now - low grey sky, good flake size and intensity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WNYLakeEffect Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 My parents in Lakewood got around a foot overnight, about 15-16" storm total, and still snowing steadily. Definitely more than I expected, given that they don't have the best elevation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From Lakewood to NYC, that is quite the change! How do you like big city living? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie09 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 I’ll have to measure soon, wouldn’t be surprised if we have at least 8”-9”.. We have been under heavy echoes all night and morning.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rochesterdave Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 It was a good setup. Being patient last evening and yesterday was tough. 5”+ in Irondequoit. 35. So accumulating was real tough. Still snowing hard at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, that snow map isn't accurate from Northern Monroe through Wayne as we easily have 4-5" within 3 miles of the lake shore. Also interesting to note that WWAs weren't added to Niagara/Orleans until radar showed them getting hit. Wonder why KBUF didn't see that coming as the models were showing them getting in the action as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinksnow18 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 In fact to be honest the whole Niagara frontier could've been under a WSW as it was 7" in a 12 hour period. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a good event for the Niagara escarpment- they don’t see a ton of snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
