BGM Blizzard

Well deserved promotion in the Bing office. Was a little surprised to see they promoted an out of towner from down south when the last MIC vacancy occurred. https://wnbf.com/nicosia-named-meteorologist-in-charge-binghamton-national-weather-service/

Sun has broken through and temp has soared to 80 here. Fantastic 2nd half of the day.

Watch possible... https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/md0450.html

Just hit 84 here. Feels like summer with the increase in humidity.

Good luck to those still wanting snow. Next week was looking good at last check. Looked like 70s and 80s by mid week. We can hope.

Hopefully any snow chances stay east of here. I'm thoroughly over winter now, 100%.

.74" of rain here today so far. Definitely needed it.

Made it to 77 here. Fantastic day.

Made it to 74 here today. Looks like a repeat tomorrow. Taking the day off to clean up the yard with the grass now growing noticeably.

Ended up with 2 inches on the grass. Pavement is just wet.

Probably near .25/hr rate at the moment. This band is motoring so probably an inch maybe 2 tops if we can get into some of the yellow stuff for a bit. Temp is 34 and falling.

Buf just cancelled all headlines outside of Lewis County, and dropped Lewis to a WWA. The modeling really does suck these days.

Probably high terrain of the Adirondacks. Might even be a dud there too at this rate though, who knows.

The models fooled us and the NWS again.....

I'm fine with heaviest snow staying N and W of Bgm. Last time we got a late season paste had a bunch of limbs come down and my neighbors birch tree bent over and split and nearly took out my truck. The grass is already starting to green up here too. I'm ready for permanent spring.

.86 of rain here today and made it to a high of 41. Currently 35. Overall a fugly weather day and would have preferred to NOT get that much rain as my yard is now a soft sponge.

The KBGM Airport is the official measuring station which is on a 1630ft hill. The city is like 8 miles south and about 900ft ASL, and averages between to 65-70" I believe, which would be about 80-85% of what the airport receives. The 730ft of extra elevation is definitely the biggest contributing factor to the disparity, but those 8 miles further north also tend to put the airport in a more favorable trajectory down wind of Cayuga Lake under NW Flow LES. Over the course of an average winter, I'd say we get about 6-10" of bonus snow from lake enhancement off Cayuga Lake that the river valley to the south largely misses out on.

Up to 98.9 for season snowfall. Need 9.7 to tie for 10th snowiest.

Crazy weather here attm. Horizontal snow at times within this lake band and some of the tiniest flakes I've ever seen as a result of the wind shredding them up. When the wind isn't blowing its looks like a thick fog outside...

Same here. Warm air definitely making a dent now.

Topped out at 55 today. Snowpack still 12-14 inches.

The cloud deck has become broken and we have hit 52 here. Feels great!

We're at the point where warm temps and big snows get equal affection from me in the model runs. Give me 6+ or give me 60s!

Up to 46 degrees here right now. The pace has slowed a bit thanks to a thickening cloud deck but might still hit 50.
