heavy_wx Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 46 degrees here with 16 kt wind from the NNE gusting to 20 kts. Already some whitecaps out on the lake.

lakeeffectkid383 Posted October 29, 2012 Author Share Posted October 29, 2012 New 00z NAM has 3-6 hours of wind gusts over 60mph for WNY. You can bet with the saturated ground (1.5" already, 2-4" additional) that will do lots of damage considering those winds will be from the north, which trees are not used to at all (used to a prevailing SW high wind). Think of the trees like your finger, your finger is used to bending one way without damage but you bend it opposite (back) and it breaks. Oh boy, fun times ahead, and i have a gut feeling this will be an overachiever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heavy_wx Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Wow, getting out of class tonight at 9 pm is going to be interesting, with the latest HRRR showing 10 m wind gusts 60-70 kts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bab5871 Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Saratoga county checking in... nothing to report... gusts to 16mph at my residence, which is scary already cause I've never seen it above 10 since we moved in... and those trees move a LOT in even light wind.

CNYWeather Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 I also noticed Weather Underground is cutting off the automatic PWS displays on their site to save bandwith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavy_wx Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Wow, getting out of class tonight at 9 pm is going to be interesting, with the latest HRRR showing 10 m wind gusts 60-70 kts. Well, SUNY Oswego canceled evening classes and classes through noon tomorrow, the first time since 2008 I believe. Getting a little windier here, still not too bad with a gust at 33 mph a few minutes ago. This is a link to our surface station here on campus which should get pretty interesting later http://www.oswego.edu/met_class/tower/index.html.

LakeEffectKing Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 I had about 10 gusts here this evening that I'd estimate at about 50mph...took a medium sized branch off my tree in front yard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vortmax Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 I must say that I'm happy it didn't rain a ton. I'll take 2" over 4-6" anyday. Gusts in ROC aren't too bad away from the lake, but on the lake they're in the 60s...some reports of 70+. They're actually evacuating 2,200 homes along the lakeshore in Monroe county.

lakeeffectkid383 Posted October 30, 2012 Author Share Posted October 30, 2012 Worst conditions of the day so far. Wind coming down horizontal and getting a howl going outside now.

vortmax Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Winds definitely picked up here in the last half hour. I wonder if some of those rain bands forming to the east are gonna bring some stronger winds down to the surface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flying MXZ Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 1.5" in my rain guage this morning and it was windy last night, but nothing noteworthy. Along the coast a completely different story however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNYWeather Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 0.22" in the gauge this morning. Peak wind gust of 37mph. All the weather boo-birds will be out in force today asking where the monster storm was for Central NY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xram Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 These pics are from yesterday afternoon (29 Oct) from Lake George!! Nice pics Andy. How bad was it up at the lake? Heading up to Silver Bay to help my friend close up his house for the winter and wondering if we are in for any damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloWeather Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Saw some pictures from Lake Erie in Cleveland last night and those waves were HUGE. Not to much here really 1-2 inches of rain and gusts to 45-50. Could not believe this picture when I seen it. Absolutely incredible damage from that fire.
