I mean if we're going to go through an unprecedented time in our lives we may as well just blow the top off this thing. I'm all for it, confused why BGM hasn't thrown up a WWA.

TugHillMatt Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Nice. The Catskills are definitely looking really good. At that elevation, you may even hold on to some snow through the day on Saturday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, last Friday the exposed areas took a hit(as expected) even with moderate snow at 32° but should be a solid dense snowfall to fight Saturday.

Flying MXZ Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 3rd straight morning with fresh snow covering the ground. Looks like #4 tomorrow. Yesterday's snow made it through the day in the shade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rochesterdave Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Radar trends look flat and south to me. I don’t see the thruway corridor doing much with this, unfortunately. Eh. Things can always shift 25 miles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This storm is further north not only with the snow shield but also areas of more moderate rates. If you go due west of Buffalo there is moderate snow bands that will effectively cross the buffalo are in about 6 or 7 hours as the LP moves east/ne. These totals are too far south imo.

Looks pretty close to NAM sim radar if you ask me, if anything NAM is underdone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We agree it's under done. I also believe you can move the 2 to 4 inch range smack through and a bit north of Buffalo as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LakeEffectKing Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 It's subtle, but the axis of heavier snow was modeled yesterday by the NAM to be a bit south of verification... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LakeEffectKing Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 00z NAM vs. verification....note max totals north of Chicago vs NAM and where reports in S. lower Michigan are overperforming vs. NAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LakeEffectKing Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 From past experiences, and based on radar trends and verification, I think the axis of heaviest qpf (mostly snow) will be in NY on a line from Hamburg, Ithaca, Hamilton, to just south of Albany......IOW about 20-30 miles north of the current 12z NAM output.
