Beyond that...all of the medium range guidance continues to suggest
that a significant low pressure system may affect our region next
weekend...however its exact impacts will depend greatly on the
degree and speed of phasing that takes place between a southern
stream trough and its northern stream counterpart...which in turn
will greatly influence the track of the resulting system. Slower
and less pronounced phasing (along the lines of what is currently
suggested by the GFS and ECMWF) would result in the main surface
low passing by to our south and likely bringing a widespread
accumulating (and potentially significant) snowfall to our area
between later Saturday through Sunday. Meanwhile...faster and more
pronounced phasing could result in the low tracking directly across
our region (as suggested by the GEM) and thus greatly increasing
the odds of a mixed precipitation or even rainfall event. Given
the resulting forecast uncertainty...for now have continued to
aim toward a model consensus and suggest another likelihood of
snow for next weekend...though at this point this remains far
from certain

So the 0z and 6z Goofus has the weekend system much more suppressed leaving WNY with a few inches...on the other hand the EURO (per mid-Atlantic blog) still looks great for all upstate. My money in a medium range is on the EURO, not because I want it, but it had the track if this storm that just hit MA sniffed out 2 days before GFS came around to it.

Just caught the weather on WIVB in buffalo...the met is Mike Cejka, decent enough but never seems to over hype, in fact I used to call him conservative Mike (amongst other things, local folks know what I'm referring to) because he would wet blanket everything...well, he just showed a weather map/graph that he believes this upcoming pattern will last about 60 days and the worst is coming by end of month and all of February. He also has the area for a very impactful storm on Saturday followed by bitter cold there after.
