TugHillMatt Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 3 minutes ago, wolfie09 said: I don't know what to think for us tomorrow/tomorrow night. BUF is most zealous with that snow map, BGM has 3 to 5 inch advisories for us, the most recent NAM and mesos have the band even FURTHER SW of us over the eastern Finger Lakes (seems to be the norm anymore)... Perhaps they're going with Rgem, which we we know is the best lake effect model. Plus, the bands often end up more north. I sure hope we can get that 6 to 8 inches, but I'm extremely skeptical considering the many ways things have gone down while living here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KBUF should have a death grip on the GSB this winter...rest of the competition looks like the NY Jets or Giants.

DeltaT13 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 North side of Buffalo has a lot of snow! All these tiny back streets are completely clogged with snow. These are the fun ones to blast around on. I’m sitting in a nice position now waiting for that new strong band to get here. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going back into my hole!! Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk Most recent disco from BGM NWS. Check out the bolded print. Take it to the bank....bahahahahahahaha. Snowdesertcuse. As the storm passes Friday morning strong cold air advection sets up setting off lake effect snow. The low level flow this time is from the northwest so CNY will be better involved. Again this will be a quick shot as high pressure and a ridge builds in late Friday night and Saturday morning with sinking dry air. 850mb temperatures fall to -17c. Moisture extends up to 10k ft with the dendrite zone in the middle of it. The problem here is the low level flow keeps shifting so a solid band does not set up for long. A band looks best in the afternoon and evening across Onondaga and Madison Counties. Combined with the snow will be strong gusty winds causing blowing snow. 2 to 5 inches but northwest Onondaga could get a little more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TugHillMatt Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I feel bad (only teeny tiny bit) high-jacking the "Lake Effect Snow" thread, but felt our shot of Lake Effect Flurries wasn't really worth a whole separate thread...so, here we are...looking for snowflakes...yelling at the skies...

Recent Rgem is still showing the WNW flow with a nice jackpot right by you of 6 inches. I just might have to do a "Delta-Buffalowx style chase" to your hood for that lollipop. We gotta show these guys the seriousness of snow up to our ankles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TugHillMatt Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 That band looks pretty impressive even up into Orleans County. The Niagara Frontier has had a better start than many this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
