lakeeffectkid383 Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Awesome photos! I got to take a drive up there at some point. Hopefully there will still be some epic snow depth. And I didnt even go any further east past Worth,NY where the elevation goes up another 300-400 feet because there was just too much snow on the roads and I didnt wanna risk getting stuck. Still was an amazing day. If I drove all the way from Buffalo you should definitely take the ride up there from Oswego! It only took 3 hours to get there from Buffalo although I was doing 75-80mph the whole way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I work with a buddy who drives down from the Montague area (within 5 miles of the radar site, about 10 miles east of where you were)...he says about 4-5 feet fell at his house the last 3 days.....amazing stuff! Coming down nicely IMBY at this time!! Feels like mid Feb. and the pattern certainly seems about a month displaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNYLakeEffect Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Awesome pics! I'd love to make it up that way someday. Back here, we've had 12.5" over the past 3 days. 7" on Wed, 2" yesterday, 3.5" last night/this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lakeeffectkid383 Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Got about 8" here the past 3 days including todays snowfall. About 10" or so in the past week and about 18" for the month of March which is very nice IMO. Got about 6-7" snowdepth which isnt bad for the end of March but after being on the Tug Hill today it seems like a dusting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSUmetstud Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 from the looks of things, I think Jamestown might pull of 3 or 4" in the 700mb deformation/TROWAL this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNYLakeEffect Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 6.5" in Lakewood, with ~12" on the ground and light snow still falling. Completely unexpected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better than 3-4". Jamestown reported 5" as of 8am and it was snowingly pretty solidly up until an hour or 2 ago and is still snowing there lightly right now. Very nice little unexpected event for them. Not a flake here though :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloWeather Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Nice pictures lakeffectkid! I don't know about you guys but I've had the flu for the last week and this weather is tearing me down to the core. I am in full spring mode, please bring me 70s and sunshine soon! Luckily I will be going to Florida for a week in early April! I am ready to get a nice tan and enjoy some outdoor sports! SO LONG WINTER! =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cny rider Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 I just spent 3 days skiing in the Adirondacks and saw an interesting variability in snow cover. First day was at Lapland Lake in Benson. All the trails are groomed but snow in the woods looked to be at least a foot deep. Second day was at Santononi Preserve in Newcomb. The snowpack there was impressive, close to 2 feet. Then went to Keene Valley, spent the night and skiied at Whiteface. There is almost no natural snow on the ground! Interesting because it's only about 30 miles north of Newcomb where they have tons of snow. And from Whiteface you can see Camel's Hump and Mt. Mansfield where they have been getting tremendous snow over the past week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo Bumble Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Thundersnow. WTF? Ripping snow here for the last 2 hours. WTF x 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavy_wx Posted March 27, 2013 Author Share Posted March 27, 2013 Ripping snow here for the last 2 hours. WTF x 2. Very interesting day, almost like a summertime convective situation where daytime heating increases low level lapse rates with cold air aloft. Here in Oswego, it's pretty quiet with the cooler onshore flow keeping us at 39F. You can see the impressive low-level lapse rates from the SPC mesoanalysis.

Gorizer Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Warning, adult language... a bit dry at first but gets good at the end. I got a good chuckle out of it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=JmH56ypfFeA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OSUmetstud Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 On and off moderate to heavy snow all afternoon up here in Parkside. Finally starting to stick to the street. We got into it good earlier in West Seneca...got an inch maybe an inch and a half. Looks like you guys further north and getting into decent stuff now.

Leelee Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I had to drive in the heart of that snow around 3pm. It was coming down hard. Probably had about 2" that added up on the grass, but that's mostly melted already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OSUmetstud Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 feels nice...unfortunately that cold snap will feel pretty damn cold in the next few days....we'll struggle to get above 32 on Tuesday. Maybe a real pattern flip upcoming by mid-April? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heavy_wx Posted April 2, 2013 Author Share Posted April 2, 2013 Got a dusting of snow here last night. Any lake effect today should be fairly spotty with the higher April sun angle preventing an organized band from forming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flying MXZ Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Yesterday's snow shower accumulated (dusting) in the shaded areas, and then an overnight snow shower turned everything white. Maybe for the final time this winter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LakeEffectKing Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 8" in Liverpool.... Edit....8" in Bayberry, where I live....a good deal less in the village of L'pool. ( I am taking the bus into work today) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lakeeffectkid383 Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Got about an inch mainly all from a burst between 8-9pm last night. Grass is barely visible. Hope the sun takes care of that today. Im more than ready for spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LakeEffectKing Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 not bad for april 1-2nd. Yeah, really....I'm now within a few inches of "normal" (~120 for the season) The beginning of this spring couldn't be more opposite than last year, at least where the LES's have occurred.
