bluewave Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Nothing is surprising anymore in our new era of extreme snowfall. Erie, PA picked up 19" of new snow from midnight to 6 AM. This brings the storm total to 53" over the past 30 hours, shattering many records. This is the greatest 2-day total in the entire state of PA (prev. record 44" in Morgantown, PA 3/20-21/1958). 4:05 AM - 26 Dec 2017 This beats the 13-day total snowfall record for Erie, PA. Previous record was 52.8" from 12/31/98-1/12/99. 4:05 AM - 26 Dec 2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be an advertising tool. anyway, I’m hoping the models as they usually do they overestimate the cold and moderate the airmass as it gets closer resulting a storm track further west. That’s the only way we’ll get that NYE storm to ride up the coast and not get supressed and drop feet of snow out by the fishies (OTS). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I then relocated for work to Buffalo Southtowns. Erie typically gets much of its LE snow from NW flow and Huron connection (typical event is 4-8 in). This 53 in. is pretty incredible given their climo. While living in BUF Southtowns/Orchard Park 10-15 in. was not uncommon. I was living on Grand Island near Niagara Falls one year and we received 40 in. of snow in one week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My family owns a place in Chautauqua, NY. Never been there during a Lake Effect Snow event but I've been meaning to. Need to experience it.

Great Lakes region are the place to be if you love snow. Snowfall is too inconsistent on the east coast, even in New England. No one who loves snow should live anywhere near the ocean if they want to see it on a consistent basis. In the Great Lakes as long as it's cold and the lakes aren't frozen you're going to get snow.

They are crushing areas above 8,000’ in the Sierras it’s only going to continue until Erie ices over. Ontario is too deep to ice over so the tug hill is going to have some insane totals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ILoveWinter Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Just an FYI that the windchill atop Mt Washington is currently -82 (on -31) with sustained winds at 77 and gusts to 84! Would love to experience that for around 10 seconds, I am sure it would be unforgettable (in an awful kind of way). That would be a nice counter to a Heat Index of around 149 (on 116) that I experienced in Dubai several summers ago (also awful in an unforgettable way).

LongBeachSurfFreak Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Question? If your goal is to belittle every snow event why are you here? If the models trend west, the ratios will suck. If the models trend east it’s I told you so DOA. i get that everyone has there own favorite weather, but stick to the facts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
