This reminds me of a storm 5-7 years ago that backed in from the North Atlantic and BUF ended up with about 20" of lake effect/enhancement over a couple days. I think your talking about Jan 2011... I remember it pounding snow during the Bills v Colts game. Think Niagara Falls landed up with like 30". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LakeEffectKing Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Safe to say, this is the first time since AmericanWeather created sub forums, that we ALL are super satisfied!! We need more storms like this....like 3-4 per year!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LakeEffectKing Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 About 3/4 of an inch per hour right now, under less than impressive radar returns.....for a lot of us that are away from a radar site, radar will not be of great use.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfie09 Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Think the NWS is a little late to the party such amounts should generally bring storm totals up to around a foot in most places. Due to areas of lake and/or orographic enhancement...higher storm totals of 1-2 feet will likely be focused along the Chautauqua Ridge southeast of Lake Erie...with the greatest overall totals (of right around 2 feet) expected to run along and a bit inland from the south shore of Lake Ontario...as well as the higher terrain east of Lake Ontario. Meanwhile...the lowest overall amounts will be found near the Pennsylvania line and in portions of the Buffalo metro area...where total accumulations will run a little under a foot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George we can disagree brutha but I hope Im right as NW winds just kicked in Big Tine! BUF is usually pretty solid for the western counties, but I have no idea why they keep insisting that total storm snowfall for most of the area will be less than a foot. They're reporting more outside their office right now, and everywhere else I've been from North Buffalo through the Northtowns has seen at least 16". We had over two more inches at my house just from when I started snow blowing to when I left for work, less than 90 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, you were holed up in Schenectady in a blizzard, what else are you going to do? I'm glad you didn't wake up half covered in a drift outside the Rivers Casino reeking of smoke and cheap liquor. Finished just shy of two feet here, so I'm very happy. Heaviest snowfall for me since VDay 2007. Those to my West did even better, but that's fine by me. Before this past February it had been two years since my last warning event.
