Major Lake Effect Snowstorm: Nov 29-Dec 4th
Bigbald replied to BuffaloWeather's topic in Upstate New York/Pennsylvania
Thanks, we are heading up to Pittsburg tomorrow, swinging east from there. Hope to backdoor into buffalo midday Saturday. No way in heck we are driving to the game as we will Uber or whatever the best method is to get to the stadium (staying in downtown). Seeing a bills game in lake effect snow is a bucket lister! -
Major Lake Effect Snowstorm: Nov 29-Dec 4th
Bigbald replied to BuffaloWeather's topic in Upstate New York/Pennsylvania
Hey folks, I mostly post in the tennessee valley thread, been a member here for years. Car load of guys loading up to head to bills game from Tennessee, we are trying to swing east and enter buffalo from geneova-batavia angle. We have an all wheel drive vehicle. Do we have a prayer ha? I am guessing the 3.4 inches falling in Batavia over 3 days is nothing to you guys, and the roads will be solid. Buffalo city center seems mildly hit with things rapidily getting worse to the south. Thanks for any thoughts you may have. -
Summer-Fall 2024 Weather Disco Med/Long Range

Not sure how an insurance company could ever stay in business with exposure to the rapid intense gulf hurricanes that are getting to be commonplace. State Farm pulled out of Florida like 20 years ago, they would be wise considering other drastic measures. None of them are very profitable enterprises right now. I think Progressive finally got back in the black after 2 or 3 years of loses.- 689 replies

Have to imagine this has been one the warmest March starts on record, are we averging plus 7-10 on temps for March thus far?

Seems like Wise, VA ought to be a good place to better understand long term winter patterns, a place purportedly averaging 50 plus inches of snow and isn't dependent on one or 2 storm tracks to make or break snow totals. When a place averages 8 inches a year it can be fickle, but when you avg 50 inches and your ending up in 20s or less it tends to stick out.

I loosely watched radar returns at both SS and Beech, it looked like Beech had more and better returns. I haven't heard anyone gawking at SS aftermath. I watched it unfold at the base of Sugar, man it was magical 48 hrs. Skied Friday until the bitter cold got the best of me.

I wonder who won the battle of the flow snow between Snowshoe and Beech/Sugar Mtn? Models were spitting out ridiculous numbers at SS in the run up but I'd be shocked if they were higher than what Beech ended up. I've heard reports from 16 inches upwards of more than two feet, But with all that wind who knows.

There is a thin line of a flizzard that is causing havoc on the roads, I am guessing the front pushing through and squeezing out the last remaining moisture. It is nearly parrellel to I 81. -

Hard for me to wrap my brain around 10 more hours of light snow like rgem/hrrr show with the lee side for swva upper east TN. Has any meso model not shown it? -

Bigbald replied to John1122's topic in Tennessee Valley
Not sure if WCYB decided to quit forecasting over the winter warning criteria or what. They've been sitting on 3-6 inches for upper East TN for awhile now. Like another poster stated, not sure it really matters. -

It's like that blob of yellows and orange on radar scope is just sitting on morristown. Impressive!
