I don't really even consider this a lake effect band.  It's certainly picking up some moisture and frictional convergence from the lake/land interface but that band exists before it gets to Erie.  I  I suppose its originating off Huron, but it just seems somewhat synoptically driven in the cyclonic flow behind yesterdays storm.   Either way, a great hybrid event that certainly caught me by surprise (just one day after I said the weather never surprises me anymore!)  I expected some snow showers today but not blinding snow and 3 inch an hour rates in the ROC.  :snowing:

Agreed, it's not a traditional lake band for sure.

Great event today!  Another forecast challenge and an over achiever!  For as rough as this season started the last 3 1/2 weeks has been incredible.  No block busters... A thorn in our side with the lake freezing up it still has shaped up to a nice and now active winter.  Wish we kept this snow pack around instead of the constant thaws and rains... All in all I’m content at this point and have my winter fill until next fall.  Hard to measure with the drifting but averaging 5.0” from today.  Not bad for a forecasted non event.
