Maybe me and matt can finally see a decsent west wind event on the backside, embedded within the wrap around moisture..

I 100% disagree with the Euro on its wind direction once the system redevelops and heads NE but I may be wrong but I'd bet on a WNW-NW flow so we'll see I suppose as it nailed that WSW flow event up in KWRT.

I hope you  both get crushed.

Thanks.

Driving to Camden today was painful. As soon as we got to Florence it was quite obvious where the snow band has been all weekend.  Camden looks like it got 8 to 12 inches.

It would be nice to get one west flow event this winter.

Just got back from snowshoeing to the falls on our property. Snow gently falling...Beautiful.

In terms of potential snowfall amounts...at this still-early juncture
it still appears that the best potential for a significant (i.e. warning-
criteria) snowfall will lie across the far eastern Finger Lakes/Eastern
Lake Ontario region and especially the North Country...where the potential
for any mix will be lowest and the briefest...and consequently the precip
should remain in the form of snow the longest...potentially leading to
total snowfall accumulations of 12 to 18 inches over a rough 36 hour
period. Elsewhere...snowfall amounts should decrease with increasing
southwestward extent owing to the progressively earlier arrival of the
milder air and the attendant wintry mix/changeover to rain...though
current projected snowfall amounts and the potential for a wintry mix
of sleet/freezing rain will still likely eventually warrant Winter Weather
Advisories.

As has been pointed out previously...it goes without saying that all
of this remains highly dependent upon the exact track/strength of the
initial primary low and how quickly the transfer of energy to the
secondary coastal system takes place. A more northwesterly track to the
primary low...a stronger primary low...and/or a delayed transfer of
energy to the coastal system would all point to a warmer overall
scenario and less snow areawide...while the opposite conditions would
favor a colder scenario and more snow overall.

I do gotta say its a tricky situation but I think we see 8-12" either way.  Finger Lakes West is a tougher, situation as with all S-SW wind events, downsloping kills and warm air comes racing Northward. We are lucky as our winds usually stay out of the E-ENE before the occluded front arrives and by then all the warm air is washed out.

The next event is starting to look more and more promising as its no more a cutter but more like a Spring time bowling ball that sneaks in under the block.  At this point it still looks like a good deal of warmer air rushes in but I think that changes with subsequent runs as the models are still catching on to that idea. Vary active pattern incoming for the foreseeable future!
