BuffaloWeather Posted October 30, 2017 Author Share Posted October 30, 2017 But yeah few degrees colder and 2-3" of Lake effect precip would be 3-5' of snow depending on ratios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CNY-LES FREAK Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Another October monster coming right up the HRV, and after this event, we won't see another HRV runner all season long but the pattern favors inland runners so we still may be in luck wirh synoptic systems this yr, which is a rarity in these parts.Welcome back all and here's to a great Winter season with lots of Snow and ice and Cold, unlike the last two flops!I also see a lot of SW flow LES events so get ready KBUF and KWRT. Off course, we here on the Eastern end of the Lake as well as NW flow lovers won't see anything till at least mid-December, JMHO is all.There's not much STJ this year so it's looks to be setting up a Northern storm track Winter with a lot of clippers type systems and a few Miller A's but mostly Miller B's with redevelopment near the delmarva which usually doesn't bode well for us so we'll see, but it's still wicked early for anything to be set in stone, unless ur on the TUG, lol, yet, but it's closing in fast.Good luck to all and here's to tracking both LES and Synoptic systems, most places hoping for the latter, but we'll take whichever comes first, like a blockbuster LES event in November, Just in time for the Turkey!Peace all!Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CNY_WX Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Just finished watching the Astros pull that insane game out in 10 innings. Definitely not baseball played in the classical way - I can't believe the way the baseball was flying out of that park. Back to weather, the rain is coming down in buckets. My weather station reports 0.64 since midnight and 2.75 for since Saturday night. I'll have to verify the amount with my rain gauge in the morning. Still no sign of the high winds forecast for later tonight. Barometer is down to 29.18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lakeeffectkid383 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Flash flood watch issued for all of Erie, Genesee, And Wyoming counties... and also a Winter Weather Advisory for Southern Erie and Wyoming county for 3-5” of snow tonight to tomorrow. Hate that it’s not a lake effect snow advisory now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie09 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 What a wicked storm, just lost power for the 2nd time, winds really starting to crank..Nearing 3.5” of rainfall at the airport.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vortmax Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Fairly tame here in W Wayne Cty as far as winds are concerned. Actually happy about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lakeeffectkid383 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Lake effect rain band setting up quickly and nicely, looking quite strong all in the last hour or so. Hydrometer Classification on KBUF radar shows the precip as snow just 1,100 ft above the radar so I wonder if tonight we can already switch over to snow even quicker than anticipated and even at lower elevations even if it doesn’t accumulate much when the rainfall rate picks up.

DeltaT13 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Oh my, can't say that I've seen many lake effect bands (albeit rain) that are that robust. That thing is an absolute monster. And as usual, it craps right out as it drops elevation moving into Monroe County. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lakeeffectkid383 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Channel 4s latest model run shows about 5” of snow by middle of day tomorrow for West Seneca/OP. Doubt I see much here but in southern OP (near Chestnut Ridge) I could see that happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southbuffalowx Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Some graupel was mixing in with the rain as some of the heavier cells passed through here. Probably close to all snow in the higher Boston Hills already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lakeeffectkid383 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Heavy graupel here ATM with big huge fat wet flakes mixing in. Ground already turning white fast even though that's probably mostly from graupel...too bad this little cell will be out of here within 10 minutes with nothing left behind it.
