WxNoob Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Got under an inch in Lansing (0.8). I work 20 miles away in Homer where they are pushing 18 inches right now(and still ripping) Pretty wild. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southbuffalowx Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 So is winter over after this week? Next week is looking quite warm, and I can't imagine we'll have a major turnaround as February turns to March. Starting to wonder if kbuf will even break 50" this year lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although your location is sort of the eastern extent of the snow hole area of upstate NY...sort of the finger lakes and central So. Tier, south of the thruway and No. of Rt 17 / I-86, other than maybe the hilly terrain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah i average something like 60 inches a year which is at least better than Elmira (where im from) which averages 30ish inches. What causes that snow hole? Is it just the orientation of Great Lakes or do the Finger Lakes play a role as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the best location for lake snows...particularly west of you towards Elmira. They also seem to get down sloped and/or on western fringe of coastal storms. Plus, WAA during marginal systems passing near or over CNY/WNY seems to have an easy time intruding from the Ohio valley. I think it all adds up...maybe someone has additional insights...

wolfie09 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Models were a little too wet in this part of the county as the spotter out of Fulton reported 0.71" of precipitation, ratios ended up about 12-1.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfie09 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Mostly scattered snow showers for the majority of the area.. kbuf For most areas...the snow shower activity expected during the Tuesday night-Thursday time frame should generally be light in nature...with only minor nuisance-type accumulations of an inch or less expected every 12 hours or so. The exceptions to this will be in areas east and southeast of the lakes...where the combination of orographic and lake enhancement could eventually lead to some advisory-worthy snows. At this juncture it appears that the greatest potential for this will lie in the Wednesday night-early Thursday period...when our airmass will be coldest and most favorable for lake enhancement...and when diurnal influences will be at a minimum.

CNY-WXFREAK Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Dave what does the Euro look like for the system, closed ULL dropping in from C CA or we could say jumping over the ridge out West. Does it phase at all with any Southern energy as JB was thinking this was gonna be a bigger deal as we move closer to the event but it doesn't look this way this time around. I only see 24hr increments. Whatever you can provide would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
