It’s true. The best ones aren’t forecasted. What a great surprise. 4.5” in Pittsford. Champagne powder. It’ll be a race against the warmth to see if we can make it to Christmas.
Big kudos to the RGEM for being the only model to sniff it out- several runs in advance. It is far and away our best LES model. One note: the band ended further SW of what was modeled. Typically they end up a tick NE. But as everyone knows, south shore lake effect is impossible to forecast.
