CNY-LES FREAK Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 I'm nearingr4in after that vicious Squall came through, actually we've been getting hit all morning here so it looks very wintery where I am but I'm sure other places in CNY feel quite differently. But as we all know these are very short-lived events and once again this one is no different, as the sun is starting to appear in and out of the clouds in between squalls or snow showers whatever you want to call them, so it's pretty much a done deal except of course if you're under that makeup and this evening south of Syracuse, what else is newSent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk I'm right there with you...It looks like the super duper strat warming, historic neg NAO, or whatever mischief happened up in the arctic is doing the trick to keep winter holding on at our latitude though. All I see on the long range models are days and days of cool/cold northwest flow, interrupted briefly by some stale and damp PAC air. So March could be a long drudge on the path to spring...

Yeah it's still deep winter here. Light snow all day, windy, cold, 5-6" of concrete snow depth. The next 3 weeks look 30s/low 40s with chances of snow. April 6th can't come soon enough, Miami for 10 days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious what the snow cover stats show for this winter at BUF. We had the early start in December and it seemed like every time we warmed up, a good shot of snow followed on its heels. Except for that week or 2 in February where we torched, it seems like there's been a constant snow pack even at lower elevations around BUF.

BuffaloWeather Posted March 9, 2018 Author Share Posted March 9, 2018 The difference between one county is incredible, probably greater than any populated area in the USA. Northwestern Erie county averages 60-70" of snow per year, SouthEastern Erie County averages close to 200" a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah we have only have bare ground for 1-2 weeks here in February. Dec 6th on we have had at least an inch on the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s the only county that gets split for NWS alert packages. I was just thinking of how I’d like to live in the Boston Hills. I’m an MRI tech, so getting a job simply requires me being within 30 mins of a medical center. I like rural, woodsy living. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syrmax Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Occasional SN- here in the 'Cuse creating a very festive holiday atmosphere. Except there's no holiday. And it's really not that festive either since it's near mid March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually it's too cold for outside activities and too warm for snow, the worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About 1400 feet above sea level, and within about five miles there are 2000 ft hilltops, plenty rural and woodsy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been out of a job ever since. In retrospect, we have had three big snowstorms in the last 1.5 years. Nov. 2016 was a 2 to 3 ft dump locally. Last March storm was a 2ft + deal and last Friday was 15 to 30 areawide. Lived here a long time so not too shabby in my opinion. Problem is it can melt so dam fast. I am ready for 40's and 50's on a regular basis. Next Saturday might end up real nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CNY-WXFREAK Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 I could walk to the center of this tiny , but intense, band thats just to my north with some embedded yellow returns coming from the center so I'd imagine 2-3"/hr and I'm missing it by !/3 of a mile.
