CNYWxGuy Posted February 2, 2011 Author Share Posted February 2, 2011 Intellicast is probably the most accurate radar out there when it comes to defining Snow-Mix-Rain lines... atleast IMO... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNYWeather Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Yah I know that retail, fast food, motels etc. strip in Oneonta well. I'm sure there are much better deals than Cooperstown. That area had one dinky mall, a McDonalds, a HoJO's and not much else years ago and route 7 was the only road down to BGM.... Now they built it out with every chain place it seems. It's a good stop off spot when I head to southwest NY to visit relatives. Cant really call that a mall anymore Brooks BBQ is a great stop too.

Docawesome Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 most likely it is due to cloudiness i imagine defintely will be adjusting my forecast its wild out in the midwest! Well start writing. I got to go to bed. Lol I'm heading to work 30 minutes earlier. Not taking any chances. These are the days i miss my university days when I spent the whole day in storm mode watching the radar, snow falling, driving around the city, and going on easternus.

Huffwx Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Just took my 4th Jebwalk of the day-- Nice chill and some fine pixie dust falling. We had about another .3 of snow after my measurement of 6.5 inches while I was eating lunch and at the movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie09 Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 942 pm MIXING WITHIP/ZR FOR OUR FAR SOUTHERN AREAS LOOKS TO OCCUR AT SOME POINT LATE TONIGHT...PROB JUST PRIOR TO SUNRISE. THE BIG QUESTION WILL BE HOW FAR NORTH IT GETS. FOR NOW...WILL CONTINUE WITH CURRENT FORECAST OF JUST A CHC OF IP FOR THE CAPITAL REGION BY LATE MORNING.

Huffwx Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 BTW, I knew that Oneonta was a great spot for round 1-- so that did pay off-- esp knowing the risks with round 2. I got burned really bad on a chase back in 08 in Watertown-- (near Valentines day) Don't remember the exact storm track, but it was ice in VA up to central VA and was supposed to be a foot. We had an inch when i went to sleep at 1 AM and it was RAINING when I woke up at 5 am. Straight rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ottawa Blizzard Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I guess they didn't have any trouble opening the canal this year..... Nope. It opened on the 7th January.

ayuud Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 PRECIP HAS STARTED AS A MIX ALREADY ACROSS THE SRN TIER WITH ERIE ALREADY AT FZRAIN AND DKK/JHW/BFD A MIX. THE AFOREMENTIONED 0C ISOTHERM PUSHES NORTH RAPIDLY BTWN 06-09Z TO JUST ABOUT A BUF-DSV LINE...WITH SRN TIER WARMING TO 2-3C. JUST CANNOT SEE SNOW ACROSS FAR SRN TIER AFTER 06Z AND EVEN SRN ERIE AND WYOMING CO SHOULD GO OVER TO SLEET/FRZG RAIN AFTER A FEW HOURS. TOUGHEST CALL OF ALL IS IMMED BUF AREA OVER TO GENESEE CO. PAST EXPERIENCE WITH SUCH DEEP STORMS MOVING RIGHT UP TOWARD LK ERIE SHOW A RAPID PUSH OF WARM AIR ALOFT UP ACROSS WESTERN NY...SO FEELING IS THAT SNOW WILL MIX OR EVEN CHANGE TO SLEET UP INTO BUF AREA AFT ABOUT 5 AM. SHOULD STAY ALL SNOW NIAG-ORLEANS OVER TO METRO ROCH. WITH THIS BEING SAID...ADJUSTED SNOWFALL TOTALS WAY DOWN ALONG PA LINE TO JUST 1-3 INCHES...BUT THERE WILL BE MORE ICING HERE. HOPEFULLY MUCH OF THIS WILL BE SLEET BUT THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR 0.25 TO 0.5 INCH OF ICE CLOSE TO STATE LINE. WSW WILL NOTE THIS. SNOWFALL TOTALS WILL INCREASE TO THE NORTH BUT WILL ALSO LOWER TOTALS TO 3-5 UP INTO SRN ERIE/WYOMING. HIGHEST AMTS WILL BE ACROSS NIAG-ORLEANS-MONROE WITH A GOOD 8-12...BUT BUF AREA WILL VARY FROM 4-6 SOUTH TOWNS TO MAYBE 6-9 CITY AND 8-10 NORTH TOWNS...BUT THIS COULD CHANGE IF WARMER AIR MAKES MORE PROGRESS THAN EXPECTED. THESE NUMBERS ARE FOR THE MAIN BURST OF PRECIP THROUGH 8 AM WED. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ottawa Blizzard Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I can't believe the local CTV is still telling the public that only 10-15cm (4-6") will fall throughout tomorrow. have they not seen the storm? Why, oh why do the Canadian weather outlets always downplay storms. Two days go, TWN was calling for 4-6" in Toronto and Hamilton. Now Hamilton had a blizzard warning. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2Slick Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Bust bust bust bust bust can you say bust? Lol I don't even care. Call me a poor sport or spoiled or whatever. This winter has been ridiculous. Don't even go down the road of I should be happy with 4-8" or whatever is forecasted now, I shouldn't, and I'm obviously not LOL. That truly is nothing, especially when you get 40" of LES in 4 days. It will have to suffice though. Was going to stay up and watch this baby, but going to catch up on some sleep now. Hope I wake up with 5" of ICE. Yes I'm pretty mad, but I will get over it. Spring is almost here.

StotaRattler Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 The valuable lesson learned here is that in this neck of the woods you never trust a storm that tracks to your west. A storm tracking into Ohio is bad enough, but you're really screwed when it tracks into Indiana. Nonetheless, this will still be a good storm for many, while I will be enjoying the pinging sounds and then ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo Bumble Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Steady snow here for about the last hour. Flake size isn't great right now so I would say less than 1/2 inch has accumulated so far. Nervously watching that snow/mix line currently holding steady in the southern tier. Think I'll ride this out until I start getting pinged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
