The precip is pushing into WNY now and will be to you in a couple hours. Throw the models out the windows especially the global models. Time to sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.

Wet sleet leaves behind some water in situations like this which ends up accreting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I moved here a little over a year ago never lost power for more than 10 seconds. NYSEG says there's an outage on Seneca St near Ridge Rd, cause unknown. 1,780 customers affected.

Fewer than five in the city of Buffalo, which is basically the kind of very low level interruptions that happen in any weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lakeeffectkid383 Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Power just came back on, sooner than expected which is great. Wonder what caused it? Also there seems like small snow flakes or grains mixing in with the ZR. Not sleet or graupel but not straight snowflakes either. Regardless already getting a glaze on everything including the patio and driveway... temp down to 29 with dp of 25... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coh Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Precip has begun and it's at least partly sleet. I'm taking that as a good sign, at least for now. Good luck everyone. Hopefully those of you who have been downplaying this event turn out to be correct. I'll check in later internet connection permitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
