dmc76 Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 LES in SE Michigan busted, band never formed as models had shown. I can't believe DTX still had headlines of 1-3" with Isolated 4" amounts in their morning discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAFF Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 What makes this so insane is the date.... So many old time records dropping and snow flying everywhere. This is truly a historic November in the weather books. Hope the craziness continues into the rest of winter...... Love the pic of the LES wall.

BuffaloWeather Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 what's your total as of now? Haven't measured in awhile. Have to be over 3 feet. I am 2-3 miles north from the NWS location in Hamburg. There is a death band 5 miles north of me that hasn't moved since last night. That location is getting 5-6 inches per hour for hours and hours....If anyone gets 100 its West Seneca/Lackawanna/OP/Lancaster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilbertfly Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Not sure I can even fathom 6 feet of snow. Most I have ever seen was GHD, and that was less than 2. It really is incredible....I was trying to drive through Buffalo on my way home from Boston during that 2001 event. Got stranded and had to spend the night in a hotel there. The scenery/images I saw seemed fake. Homes and trees with feet an feet of snow piled on top. It looked like some painting from the north pole or something. I actually took some movies of the driving on the hwy and around town as we were searching for a hotel. I will have to try and find those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloWeather Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 I remember when this guy said he didn't live in a LES belt. I still stand by that notion. I don't live in a LES snowbelt. I had 160 inches last year, Perrysburg 30 mins south of me had 330 inches. I can drive to the city in 15 minutes. I live in a southern suburb of Buffalo. My parents live in a northern suburb and have 2 inches. Do they live in the snowbelt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huronicane Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 You had almost twice Buffalo's normal snowfall last year. You might not be right in the heart of the belt, but you're in the belt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonger Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 I can't believe DTX still had headlines of 1-3" with Isolated 4" amounts in their morning discussion. It was the perfect wind direction, perhaps dry air killed the ability for it to survive the trek across the state. Who cares... I'm going to Gaylord on Thursday anyhow... haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That lake will probably drop 5 degrees in 2 days. Granted... that takes NOTHING away from what is happening... Totally epic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
