12Z GFS has 5 synoptic misses in this run. Most are offshore and/or S&E.  Hope that's just its usual bias showing up.

eps members are basically in that same boat as well. If that one misses, def a big signal is around day 11-13, but that one could get a little ugly with more se ridge

A progressive and amplified upper air pattern to close out the
weekend and start the first half of the week. Initially Sunday
night, a positively-tilted trough will position east of the
Mississippi River. Due to the nature of the trough axis`s alignment,
rather weak forcing will prohibit further cyclogenesis to the
already existing surface low over the upper Great Lakes, which will
sandwich the region between an exiting area of surface high pressure
centered over the Canadian Maritimes. Overall, this will promote
rather quiet weather Sunday night into Monday. Additionally, due to
the synoptic setup the region will be under broad southwest flow
during this time which will cause temperatures to climb Monday.
Daytime highs will range in the 30s, with the warmest temperatures
occuring across the Genesee Valley where a couple of readings may
reach 40. This being said, such a warm ambient temperature above the
snowpack will warm the pack and allow it to begin to ripen though,
little meltoff is expected.

The aforementioned upper level trough will work its way east
crossing the central Great Lakes Monday and Tuesday, which will
result the weak surface low pushing its cold front across the region
Monday night. However, with the majority of the energy associated
with this system being transferred to the system riding up the East
Coast, resulting in little forcing across the region just some
flurries and pesky snow showers are expected. Otherwise,
temperatures aloft may get cold enough to support some lake enhanced
snow showers east of both lakes Monday night and last into Tuesday
morning.

Surface level ridging will build into the region throughout the day
on Tuesday, favoring rather quiet weather with just a few flurries
and lake snow showers (focused east of both lakes). The upper and
mid- level ridging will pass across the region Tuesday night,
promoting fair dry weather.
Ensemble members are in agreement that an anomalous 500mb trough
moves over the Great Lakes region mid to late week. A cold front
will approach the region mid-week and initially, a mix of rain
and snow showers are possible. This will likely be short lived
as another shot of cold air moves into the Great Lakes region by
Friday. Lake effect snow showers possible east of the Lakes
through Thursday night. A brief period of dry weather is
possible Friday before a clipper system brings a chance for snow
showers into next weekend.

Want to get out there and ice skate before a warm up. Its definitely thick enough to skate on

 

Where do you think you can find ice like that on Erie?  Are there really spots frozen that flat and clean?  My hike idea might have been a little ambitious trying to go all the way out to the break wall but shoreline walk def looks ok.
