CNY-WXFREAK Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Wow, that band didn't take long to go boom! Oswego special as its not supposed to move much till 5AM, so says KBGM and if its at this intensity then look out from Oswogo-Minerro-Fulton-Central Square special. Congrats, we will get the leftovers as it settles to the South tomorrow morning then a bout of Multiple bands then a bit o snow Sunday then a snow to rain storm Tues-Wed. Keep us posted Wolfie if your at home since it is Saturday night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prob a solid 2" an hour. These pics were from North Collins where there was AT LEAST 2ft on the ground (didn't have a measuring tape with me). The parking lot I was in had a solid foot of pure fluff in it which I'm assuming fell since last night. This was at 3pm and judging by radar I wouldn't be surprised if there's another 6-12" on top of this already with more to come. I would bet Forestville is over 50" since they were at 37" as of 8am this morning and they've been under that band for a good part of today. What a winter for the Southertier so far!

wolfie09 Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Still have work tonight haha, have my doubts this makes it into Fulton.. Some of the sr models had the heavy stuff just to the north of Fulton, we may just be the "passer by" as winds shift to the NW.. We'll see..

wolfie09 Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 That band is way north right now, u can see a slight southward movement over the lake.. Gfs has winds switching to wnw between 4am and 7am, so it should start to slowly drift south.. Problem is it won't be a sustained wnw wind, it most likely will be a short lived burst of heavy snow..

CNY_WX Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 It's on the move now, about to move into Fulton. Unfortunately as it falls off the lake it should start to lose intensity. I'm not looking for more than a couple of inches out of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfie09 Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 kbuf the main Lake Ontario band is now in the process of sinking southward across eastern Lake Ontario and Oswego county as winds realign out of the northwest in the wake of the surface trough. This band will continue to settle southward into Wayne...northern Cayuga...and southern Oswego counties this morning...and will eventually give way to more multi- banded activity that will continue through the balance of the day. Like the Lake Erie lake snows...the Lake Ontario lake effect will also begin to weaken later this afternoon as our airmass begins to dry...and inversion heights begin to lower under the influence of the building surface ridge. Further weakening will then ensue tonight as the burgeoning ridge supplies further drying...lowering of the cap... and a backing and increasingly sheared low level flow...with the activity likely degenerating to some scattered leftover snow showers by the time it approaches the Watertown area late tonight. With respect to snowfall accumulations...a general 3 to 7 inches of additional accumulation can be expected within the main lake effect areas outlined above today...for which lake effect headlines remain in effect as outlined below. Following this...more nuisance- type amounts of 1 to 2 inches will follow east-southeast and east of the lakes as the activity diminishes and lifts northward tonight...with even lesser amounts of a half inch or less expected northeast of the lakes overnight.

wolfie09 Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 some more kbuf Conditions will start to deteriorate Monday night as strengthening warm advection between the coastal high and the deepening storm over the Upper Mississippi Valley will be accompanied by a deepening moisture field. The increasingly efficient isentropic lift will start to generate some light snow over the western counties shortly after midnight...with the snow becoming steadier as it will spread east across the Finger Lakes to the Eastern Lake Ontario region by daybreak. Snow accumulations should generally be under an inch...and restricted to sites west of the Finger Lakes. On Tuesday...a strengthening low level jet and deep isentropic lift will ensure that the pcpn becomes widespread and fairly steady across all of western and north central New York. Given the strength of the warm advection...the steady snow is expected to change over to rain from west to east during the course of the midday and afternoon. Before this change over occurs though...the wet sticky snow should accumulate one to three inches...with the higher amounts favored across the elevated terrain and also east of Lake Ontario. Because of the deep southerly flow...have shaved back the QPF (and corresponding snowfall) for the downslope areas north of the BUF to SYR Thruway corridor. Temperatures on Tuesday will climb to near 40 across the western counties...with the mercury just making it above the freezing mark across the North Country. Our region will find itself sandwiched between an arctic high over Quebec and a storm system over the Ohio valley on Saturday. Guidance has been `all over the map` with this scenario...so will maintain continuity with only low chc pops for snow showers across the bulk of the forecast area. Looking further down the road at the third week of the month... The pattern looks anything BUT cold as a very progressive west to east flow is being advertised by the vast majority of the medium range ensembles. The big change in the pattern will largely come as a result of the `dissolving` of the persistent omega block that has been parked over Alaska. Without this obstacle to the high latitude flow...deep troughing over the continent will give way to a low amplitude flow that will serve as a block to the southward movement of arctic air. Another factor that will help with the progressive pattern will be general low pressure over the North Atlantic. The absence of a `Greenland block` will only encourage the aforementioned progressive flow. Boiling all of this down...there is relatively high confidence that temperatures for the third week of the month will average above normal with a very low potential for any significant lake snow.

CNY_WX Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Just measured just over an inch so far this morning-woo hoo! Snowing lightly right now even though radar's not showing much over me.
