LakeEffectKing Posted February 10, 2011 Author Share Posted February 10, 2011 Welcome aboard. Are you the same snagger from MFF? Welll......???? You got some totals for us???? I'm guessing around 15"..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LakeEffectKing Posted February 10, 2011 Author Share Posted February 10, 2011 It has arrived here, about time... we have been cheated all winter long in north central Oswego County. Welcome snagger! I grew up in Parish, so I know what it's like to feel like "come on already....it's supposed to snow around here" And when one goes deep into Feb without being hit with at least a good 1.5 foot storm, the snow lovers get antsey!

LakeEffectKing Posted February 10, 2011 Author Share Posted February 10, 2011 BTW, notice the band has shifted more slowly over land....the orientation over the lake is around 275-280, whereas over land it contracted a bit, but is oriented more 260-265 ish.....the band will not make it as far south as the meso's had indicated last night.

CNY Mike Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Upwards of 2" here - the band really failed to make it inland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danno Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 I heard 22" in Pulaski with 4"/hr rates. Confirmation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winter_rules Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 I'm east of Pulaski and a mile or two south (as the crow flies). We got 16" in just under 4hrs. Snow started at about 2am and was done at 6am. Judging by the radar at 2am I'm not surprised that somebody a little north of me got another 6". That band was cranking!

CNYWeather Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 I know as of 10pm last night Tornado Girl had 14" up on the Tug. Very light snow here in Central Oneida County and only a dusting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ontario squalls Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Welll......???? You got some totals for us???? I'm guessing around 15"..... I measured 16. Broke a shear pin in my blower. Now here comes round 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavy_wx Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 We got well over a foot in Oswego with another 3-4" in the last hour and a half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revracer800 Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Just a dusting here a mile out of town in hannibal but northern part of town 6-8". My snowblower will get a break haha. Bright blue and sunny skies right now but windy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snagger Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Welll......???? You got some totals for us???? I'm guessing around 15"..... You were right ... 14 inches by 500am.. just woke back up.. was shoveling roofs all night for the first time this year. I drove up to Pineville, that was the sharp cut off line to the storm for a while last night.. Why did the heavy snow retreat towards the lake around 5am? Starting to snow hard again, but it's different, more like that fluff we been getting all winter.. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very often, when a lake band reorientates itself on a more NW'er trajectory, it is indicitive of surface high pressure building in, which weakens the mean llv flow, thus a retraction back to the lakeshore. Also, there are some frictional convergence effects that allows an east/west oriented band to carry further inland (north of Port Ontario) than further south...

I always wondered that, also noticed that bands tend to always sag south at night for some reason ... I thought maybe there was a reverse lake breeze at night like summer that influenced them or something subtle... only if there really productive to they stay put at night from my house north. 80 % of all my big Snow Squall memories are during the daytime.

snagger Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Lake effect king, I got a video for you too look at some time of a rapidly developing thunderstorm off a lake breeze connected to a line of dieing storms that tryed to cross Ontario from Canada. The shelf cloud came almost down to tree level and was rotating, we were in the rainfree southwest corner of the developing storm and recieved huge damage here with only a little hail, no rain. Whole time the sun was out and 40+mph sustained winds. It was awesome stuff.... Better than alot of duratio storms we've had in the past.. It was taken on an old cd camcorder that doesn't easilly load to the computer, and I left it in Ithaca over the holiday. Would like someone's imput on this storm that knows what's what.. Thanks!!

ontario squalls Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Another 6 inches on the sweep back north. 22 for the event which was about 10 hours in total. 8 hours of heavy stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Bumble Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Lake Erie is actually coughing up a relatively disorganized band at the moment, even with pretty much full ice cover. Currently have moderate snow in Lancaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey George..looking at TYX radar it looks funky to me. That isn't one band per se like last night's was...it looks (to me) like there is this stationary stuff on the Tug and then last nights band redevelop(ed)ing to the south moving northeast. OR Am I hallucinating? To me it looks neither multiband nor single band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OR Am I hallucinating? To me it looks neither multiband nor single band. If you go over to BUF's site, you'll see a fairly well developed (albeit weak) band structure that propogates ENE'ward over L. Ontario, just NW of ROC.....I suspect that the remnant vertical circulation structure is sufficient to continue eastward and then enhanced by the E/W shoreline between Nine Mile Point and Port Ontario and then further aided by upslope by the Tug. You can also see it a bit on the vis: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tornado Girl Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Nice LES map on the noon news Andy. TG will appreciate that. It was a nice map ....I just wish this had happened earlier in the season....we would have gotten a lot more lake effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
