Jesus. What a winter

Pretty slow out there. Sure wish something would fire up!!

Gfs catching onto an inverted trough. Could be good for a few inches Friday into Saturday.

Solid look. Little bit East. We can start watching for real.

Anybody got a link to Mesonet snow totals? I’m curious, you think Mesonet or human is more reliable? I’m assuming Mesonet is a computer measuring system? Correct?

Considering zero success with any long range products this entire winter, you’ll excuse me if I don’t buy into products predicting events 10 months away. 120 hrs made monkeys out of all the models this winter. I’m sure they’ll do much better with 7,000 hrs..... 2019/20 winter isn’t over. March hasn’t even begun. Maybe for lake effect it’s over but as I’m fond of saying, in Rochester, we see our best synoptic events in March. Something will pop up.

Next opportunity looks to be Friday into Saturday. March is always good for a surprise or two. Had 2” fresh last night. Im headed to the Dacks next weekend for winter fun. Hope all the snow isn’t gone!

You had an opportunity to live in Springville and didn’t take it? Whaaa!?!? I’m sure the weenies there thank you. Lol. It’s actually the best micro climate in my book. It’s so close to civilization and just crushes areas just 10 miles away. Way more realistic than living on the tug

Nice video! Thanks Looks like that band will peter out before it can cause any damage south. What a bust this whole thing was (unless you lived on the Tug). Roc and BUF will likely end with little to nothing after BUF had both in 12-18” ranges just prior to the ‘storm’. BUF should NEVER paint more than what the consensus model total is. I mean, where were they getting those totals? You do a blizzard warning for a LOCK. For a storm that will meet the public’s expectations of what a blizzard is over a broad population area. Not for the toothless wonders up in their cabins in no mans land (I’m jealous of them).

Upstream sinking south. Maybe that sw orientation won’t occur

Blizzard warnings was a ridiculous call. Lamest blizzard eva

Do it!

You lucky bastard! And I know pics don’t do it justice. You should get a cam! I looked at buying property up there years ago. Salmon Shores or some such development. Had plots for 12k. Lol. Shoulda done it

They posted warnings, for the synoptic part, over Orleans, Niagara, Erie and nobody verified. Come on now.

I’m hoping for ya Wolf. I’m also hoping on Snow Ridge. I’ll be checking in with their cam often. I’ve got nothing to offer as I’m not a LE guy. I know little about it but I’d love to see you cash in with a couple feet. Man, BUF has taken it on the chin with accumulation thus far. I know it’s early but those guys always freak out when a LE event comes around.

Jamestown is 45

Tim, you ALWAYS say that. Eternal optimist

We will get to see what it’s like- for a single minute

Hammer still has a foot plus for Orleans and western Monroe- no idea what he’s seeing. All synoptic

Typical BUF. A few tiny locations will get feet and everyone else will get a windy inch and BUF is gonna advertise like the entire state is having a blizzard. The synoptic looks to be a total bust. Look out REDFIELD and Springville. Everyone else, enjoy your dusting. Lol

I’m there next weekend. Hope it holds its base. It should.

Yeah, this thing is making a break for the west. Very difficult to get a track up the apps (Well northern foothills/ CNY) , it always wants to ride the lakes plain or jump East to Albany.

Sweet. I love the spirit. Half of the reason I never chase is because I don’t have anyone to do it with. It’s a little intimidating thinking of just driving into that beast alone. If you get stuck with buddies, it’s fun, if it happens alone, it gets a little weird. Have fun bro! Go deep

Man! It was close to a big one. Really. Really close. Games not over, but the other guidance came in west and late on changeover etc. Really close, did I say that? Lol

Not a great scenario for Rochester or really anywhere on the south shore. I’m not gonna hold my breath on what will likely end up a dying transient band late FRIDAY. Lol I should drive up to the Tug....
