DeltaT13 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Roch airport only reported 4.7 inches at 5pm. Still hoping we can start stacking this stuff up efficiently soon. I'm out at the distillery on mt hope. It's snowy fun driving but nothing impassable yet...visibility really drops when you hit the bands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big dendrites pouring down in the fading light - blissful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CNY-WXFREAK Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Look how perfectly the surface winds are looking for LE later when this thing stacks its gonna be a thing of beauty! Oh, and the system made landfall in RH. H950 is there already so this band effecting Wolfie down thrpugh DT Cuse can infact be a bit LE but wait till 850 kicks in! H850 is there as well but the 700 isn't there yet and the 500 is lost somewhere, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo Bumble Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 The amount of snowfall in NY state from this storm is just incredible. I know this is nowhere near the impact of the March 93 storm, but I'll be interested in seeing a comparison of snow totals for areas across the state when this storm is done.

tim123 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Dave look at radar look at snow front low rotating back in from Watertown over lake Ontario. Plus you can start seeing for the first time streamers from Ontario coming into roc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BGM Blizzard Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 BGM SPS... Special Weather Statement National Weather Service Binghamton NY 730 PM EDT Tue Mar 14 2017 NYZ009-015>018-022>025-036-037-044>046-055>057-062-PAZ038>040-043- 044-047-048-072-150130- Northern Oneida-Yates-Seneca-Southern Cayuga-Onondaga-Steuben- Schuyler-Chemung-Tompkins-Madison-Southern Oneida-Cortland- Chenango-Otsego-Tioga-Broome-Delaware-Sullivan-Bradford- Susquehanna-Northern Wayne-Wyoming-Lackawanna-Luzerne-Pike- Southern Wayne- 730 PM EDT Tue Mar 14 2017 ...Historic Snowstorm continues to pound Central New York and Northeast Pennsylvania early this evening... A band of very heavy snow, with snowfall rates of 1 to 3 inches per hour and locally higher, continues to hammer Central New York and the northern tier of Pennsylvania, mainly near and east of the Interstate 81 corridor. This band is likely to move little through 10 pm, with a slow weakening trend anticipated between 10 pm and 2 am. Additional snowfall of 3 to 6 inches is expected in many places through 2 am, with locally up to 8 inches. As of 6 pm, widespread storm totals of 15 to 30 inches have been observed, with localized totals in the 30 to 35 inch range. At the National Weather Service office near the Binghamton Regional Airport, a storm total of 26.4" was measured as of 6 pm. This eclipses the previous 24-hour snowfall record of 23.0", which was set in 1961. Obviously, this total will go higher this evening. Later tonight, although snow is expected to continue, it will turn lighter in intensity. However, it needs to be emphasized that as the snow tapers down later tonight, winds are likely to increase, with gusts of 30 to 40 mph becoming more common. This will lead to substantial blowing and drifting, which will seriously hamper efforts to clear roadways. Travel is highly discouraged, except in cases of emergency. Driving conditions are very difficult, at best, and completely impassable, at worst. Little, if any improvement is expected in travel conditions overnight and early Wednesday, with increased drifting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rochesterdave Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 That's a map only Tim would draw. Ofcourse he might have some 3 foot lollies. I was thinking, if Roc ever wins the golden snowball, Tim should be the recipient. He loves snow even more than me. And ive considered seeing a shrink about my snow psychosis. LOL. What do you think Tim? Put it up on your mantle at home? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WNash Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 By far this is the best lake action we have had in the northern neighborhoods in Buffalo all winter - and it's from Ontario! Well done, Tim - I think you suggested this was a possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
