MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 1928
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0814 AM CST THU NOV 20 2014

AREAS AFFECTED...LEE OF LAKE ERIE AND LAKE ONTARIO

CONCERNING...HEAVY SNOW

VALID 201414Z - 201845Z

SUMMARY...SNOWFALL RATES /EXCEEDING 2 INCHES PER HOUR/ AND THE
POTENTIAL FOR THUNDERSNOW ARE EXPECTED TO INCREASE BY MIDDAY IN LEE
OF LAKES ERIE AND ONTARIO AND PERSIST THROUGH THE AFTERNOON.

DISCUSSION...TRENDS IN SOUNDINGS /INCREASING HEIGHT OF THE INVERSION
ACROSS LOWER MI BETWEEN 00Z AND 12Z TODAY/ ARE INDICATIVE OF THE
COOLING TEMPERATURES AND HEIGHT FALLS SPREADING EWD WITH THE
APPROACH OF THE UPPER GREAT LAKES MID-LEVEL TROUGH. 12Z SOUNDING AT
BUF SHOWED SIMILAR TRENDS IN THE LOW-LEVEL LAPSE RATES...AND THIS
TREND WILL CONTINUE AS THE COLDER AIR SPREADS EWD ACROSS THE
RELATIVELY WARMER LOWER GREAT LAKES TODAY. FORECAST SOUNDINGS PER
12Z RAP/HRRR OVER AND EAST OF THE LOWER GREAT LAKES CONFIRM THESE
OBSERVATIONS WITH AN INCREASE IN BUOYANCY. THUS...THE INCREASE IN
CONVECTIVE DEPTH SHOULD RESULT IN THE POTENTIAL FOR THUNDERSNOW
EMBEDDED WITHIN THE ONGOING BANDS...FURTHER ENHANCING THE HEAVY
SNOWFALL RATES.

..PETERS.. 11/20/2014

Hi Rich,

I just came across your video from the Buffalo snowstorm. I am a producer for the weather channel and would like to feature it on our website. I will credit your name and last name if you want to share. Also, if you'd be up for it we could do an interview too.

Thanks,

Mandy Carranza
