Yeah...constant, very light snow has been the theme here in Caz., with temps steady near 32...trees holding the snow very well the last 2 days.

Next Monday's system is trending sharper/stronger on 12z GFS...

3.25" total for Caz. for the event.

Probably an inch per hour rates right now.

Heavy snow here and Cazenovia right now. Closing in on 2 and a 1/2 inches.

1" of perfect snowball making sown...not to wet...9:1 I'd guess.... Agreed on back building potential...or some additional lift moving through later...most models hint at...nice little mood snow.

Steady snow here in Cazenovia. Slowly increasing in intensity.

50/50 sn/ip.....light. .1/2" of crust.

IP/ZR....Prolly 50/50 here in Caz....1200'....not one flake.

People golfing today... Disgusting... Nuff said.

About 6-8" in Bridgeport.

2" in Caz in 2 hours as band swept through.

Nice!

The heaviest snow always occur on the North side of a band when it's moving South and on the South side of the band when it's moving North. So you should finish strong!

Congrats Ty! You have about another hour or so of this and then it should be on the move and weaken a bit.

I think this event for South East of Lake Ontario is going to over perform a bit.... For areas in Oswego County... I go with 6 to 10".... And then late tonight into tomorrow morning a 4 to 7" accumulation for northern Onondaga county and probably closer to 8" in my neck of the woods in Madison County.

Congrats WNY'ers... Band is definitely on the increase Ahead of the short wave.... Thinking the heaviest of snow for this event will occur over the next 3 hours as the convergence will really tighten up.

Congratulations to Western New York on their white Christmas. Here in Cazenovia, I took several measurements throughout the night. At 8PM, we had no snow falling and 0" OTG. At midnight, I took several measurements throughout the yard, to account for drifting. All 3 measurements were 0". I woke up late this morning, and was surprised to see no snow on the ground, but knew it had had to have snowed overnight, but then some warm noise re-melted it all....so I'm gonna estimate we got about a foot in a short period, but it all melted. Merry Christmas!

Just tracking last night's GFS parallel.... Not that I'm holding out hope for us in the East.....

Yeah....maybe a few lightning bolts thrown in!

Synoptically, as stated previously, 2-4/3-5.... I'd like to see tonight swans and tomorrow morning's runs, Before putting out totals, Once the energy is sampled better. It's gonna make a huge difference is to whether or not these bands move 10 or 15 miles or if they remain quasi-stationary (5-10 miles). There certainly is potential for both areas off both lakes to get over 2' if the latter occurs.

I agree With this post. Although I would say synoptically most areas should get a little more than a couple inces.....maybe 2-4/3-5... At least as it is depicted on the models right now. Cold air looks to be coming in quickly as the heaviest convection is taking place. Could be a couple hours of heavy snow.

Yeah...put me down for putrid, when describing the NWS radar.... Guess I'll stick with College of DuPage's radar...
