DeltaT13 Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 10 inches here but compacting and blowing are making measurements pretty sketchy. Definitely blizzard-like at times. I just did about a 10 mile loop and saw maybe a 3-4 inch discrepancy just on that journey. Must a lot of meso and even micro-scale physics at work. Really a fantastic event for Monroe County Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The airport might get that. The southeast suburbs are approaching 16", and have you seen the radar? Plus, that low is still retrograding. Im looking for a 25"-30" total!

tim123 Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Think monroe county about to get a beating again. Geo bay streamer blowin up starting to merge again with precip shield.

tim123 Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Looking at radar it looks like geo bay merging with lake simcoe the lake ontario the into edge of synoptic. Amazing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AppsRunner Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Conditions have deteoriated on the East/Southeast shoreline now. SYR reporting +SN with 1" last hour, Watertown/FZY both down to 1/4 to 1/2 mile visibility. We're down to about 1/5 of a mile here with 40-50 mph sustained winds. HRRR keeps snow around until the end of its run still. Fulton probably looks good to pick up another 4-6", perhaps a little more. Tug should manage at least a few reports of 2-3' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LakeEffectKing Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 3 measurements across my property, due to wind.... 9", 13", 12".....which averages to 11.3" here in Liverpool. Currently bordering on moderate/heavy snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LakeEffectKing Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 S+ currently....I did a re-measure over my neighborhood....found a couple spots where it was quite sheltered from wind....14" seems a better total....(1 hour later).. Rates are near 2"/hr. Talked to my Mom up in Parish (Oswego Co.)....over 20" there....for the whole storm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AppsRunner Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 SN here. Still gusting 30-55mph. Probably more snow in the roads than in the grass here, but we have to be near 4" at least. Who really knows! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AppsRunner Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 A few distinct bands trying to develop. Tug getting crushed. I think I'm in one of the individual bands right now. +SN, visibility down to 1/3 mile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenixny Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 12" to 15" for Phoenix. Measured 12" on driveway and 18" on bottom of my wood deck where lots of roof snow blowing on it. Great call George! Gonna be widespread 15 to 30+ when all said and done I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I have time....maybe a map later..... One more note....the wind will be ferocious for a time Sun. into Sun. night along the S/SE/E.

Syrmax Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 I measured 11" this a.m. at 0630 although like everyone else is experiencing, hard to get a good measurement. Somewhere between 10-15" is accurate, drifting up to 2 feet IMBY. My liquid equivalent was was off as snowgauge didn't capture wind driven snow apparently. I could have done a core measurement but I had to get snowblowing instead of pissing around with that. Only 0.58" liquid but no way the ratio is that high...it's closer to 10:1 I'd guess based on snowblower ops this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Bumble Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Congrats everyone not within a 15 mile radius of my house! And great call LEK, as usual. Should have seen this coming. Very warm lakes, sub freezing temps, developing/retrograding low in the "sweet spot" for NW/WNW flow, and tons of synoptic moisture pinwheeling right over L. Ontario....= absolute crushing for a huge area from about Batavia past 'Cuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
