CNY-LES FREAK Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Has picked up quite a bit in the last 15 minutes or so! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY-LES FREAK Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I like KBUF'S 4-8" for the area as a whole! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeltaT13 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Buffalo is being silly with this storm, slowly adding counties here and there to the WWA. It should have just been the entire cwa from the start. So much simpler for the public and anyone involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CNY-LES FREAK Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Been snowing moderate to heavy here for the last hour.Yes, I concur! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revracer800 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Moderate snow here also. Windy again also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY_WX Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I don't like the look of that hole in the precipitation over western NY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY_WX Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 The snow has stopped at Cornell. Snow does appear to be moving back into southwest NY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY-LES FREAK Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Don't think that hole will effect us here as it's back filling as it moves eastward, at least that's what it looks like to me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champy Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Don't think that hole will effect us here as it's back filling as it moves eastward, at least that's what it looks like to me! I can confirm here in the Skaneateles area snow has basically stopped to flurries. Windy as hell tho! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSUmetstud Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I'm nearly convinced BUF will best Feb 1934. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gravity Wave Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Got about an inch here in the first wave even though it only lasted 2 hours. The second wave should be better if it holds together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayuud11 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Approaching 2" at kenmore, roads are getting slick too.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coh Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I think we've gotten about an inch, but even with that - my wife said the roads were extremely slick not too long ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY_WX Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 The snow hole does appear to be filling in, at least the northern part. This is probably part of the snow minimum the models are showing over the Finger Lakes. Still snowing here but lighter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revracer800 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Picked up about 2" here also. Very light snow falling right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY-LES FREAK Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Just took a closer look at radar, we shouldn't be affected by the sporadic shower type look to our SW as that too should fill in! Loving the looks of the radar upwind as well with some decent returns showing up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY-LES FREAK Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Flake size has increased dramatically as there may be some kind of warm air intrusion at some levels perhaps? Could be an overperformer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY-LES FREAK Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 S+ now across the area as the area now as the hole quickly filled in as it was crossing the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY_WX Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Snowing lightly here right now. I just went out and measured about 2 inches. Snowflakes seem to be icy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY-LES FREAK Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Flakes are like graupel now for some strange reason as it can't be any warm intrusion as critical thicknesses are down near the Mason Dixon line, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY-LES FREAK Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Snowing lightly here right now. I just went out and measured about 2 inches. Snowflakes seem to be icy. Same here, very strange as radar is dark green above us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coh Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Snowflakes have varied a lot here. Started out decent sized this morning, then went over to a grainy type snow before stopping entirely. Now the rate and size have picked up again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY-LES FREAK Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Yep, back to a nice steady S at times S+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY-LES FREAK Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Awesome flake size! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syrmax Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Awesome flake size!.Agree. I was at LeMoyne college since noon on a college tour, I'd say 1-2" there, noticably less than here in clay...just measured 3" and flake size is huge attm. That well modeled QPF hole just narrowly flirting with us but looks to be filling in nicely. Looks like KBGMs forecast map of 4-6" here earlier this morning just busted. KBUF's 6-8 looks more reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY_WX Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Back to at least S with decent flake size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
