I'm surprised we STILL have some parking lot snow piles from our Pre-Thanksgiving lake effect event that have survived the torches here. Here's BGM's take on tonight. Hoping for that multi-lake connection. It can be a beautiful thing across Northern Onondaga..
Around 06z, the 925mb trough passes just east of Lake Ontario and
the winds start to become slightly more west-northwesterly. This
should start to push the band slight to the south and west leading
to lake effect accumulations across southern Oneida, Madison,
and Onondaga counties. At this point, BUFkit soundings show
quite a bit of lift in the DGZ and this is matched fairly well
with plenty of surface convergence and modest theta-e lapse
rates reaching into the Souther Tier. The multi-lake influence
becomes stronger as the fetch over the waters lengthens at this
point. Lake effect snow should likely push well inland just
before day break although accumulations look to be less than
half an inch south of the Thruway. The forecast challenge is
that the band looks to be fairly will supported dynamically and
should have the potential to produce inch to inch and a half an
hour rates overnight. Its just a question of how long does the
band setup over any given area.
