winter_rules Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 2in snow this morning at 1,700ft in NW Delaware County. Radar shows it still snowing but it’s probably melting on the bottom as fast as it’s building on the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo Bumble Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Lake Erie did it's dirty work today squashing the hopes and dreams of summer enthusiasts in the city and surrounding areas. I hit the mid 70's very early in the day, then temp steadily dropped starting around 3PM. Bottomed out in the low 60's. Quite fascinating to drive about 5 miles east to Wegmans and see people out in shorts while frolicking in the summer warmth. Then return home to see people in sweats and hoodies, hunched over as the chill in the air from the icy waters hangs on top of us like a heavy weight, all while winds gust to 50 mph and slap a "real feel" of 51 degrees in your face. 8 PM obs: CITY SKY/WX TMP DP RH WIND PRES REMARKS NIAGARA FALLS MOCLDY 76 54 46 SW16 29.92R BUFFALO MOCLDY 62 48 60 SW10 29.94S DUNKIRK CLOUDY 73 54 51 SW13G18 29.96R JAMESTOWN CLOUDY 74 53 48 SW10 30.02R WELLSVILLE MOCLDY 77 46 33 W10G21 30.03R ROCHESTER LGT RAIN 74 53 48 W18 29.93R PENN YAN MOCLDY 77 46 33 W10G21 29.95R $$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eventually blow off from that line will outrun the squall line itself but looks like a solid few hours of heating before that happens. Would love to see CAPES get up into the 1500 range as all the other ingredients are in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Past experience has shown that these very powerful spring storms with strong upper and low level dynamics overwhelm any lake influcences as if they don’t even exist. The summer storms get absolutely devoured by the stable lake air though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoda Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Mesoscale Discussion 0351 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0123 PM CDT Fri May 04 2018 Areas affected...Western NY...Northwest PA Concerning...Severe potential...Severe Thunderstorm Watch likely Valid 041823Z - 042000Z Probability of Watch Issuance...95 percent SUMMARY...Damaging winds in excess of 50kt will accompany convection this afternoon. Severe thunderstorm watch will be issued. DISCUSSION...Plume of steep low-level lapse rates have developed along a corridor from OH into southern ON. Scattered convection has developed within this plume along/ahead of a surging front that currently extends from southern Lake Ontario into northwest OH. Intense large-scale forcing for ascent will spread along the international border region which will encourage upward evolving squall line as it races east. Severe wind gusts in excess of 50kt have been common with convection across southeastern lower MI into northwestern OH. 18z sounding from BUF exhibits a strengthening wind field with 50kt near 900mb. There is increasing confidence that 50kt+ wind gusts will easily mix to the surface given the steep boundary-layer lapse rates. Latest thinking is widespread wind damage could accompany squall line as it races east ahead of ejecting mid-level speed max. Watch will be issued soon to account for this threat. ..Darrow/Hart.. 05/04/2018 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product... ATTN...WFO...BGM...BUF...CTP...PBZ...CLE...

Not even enough cases to compare to climo in the Adirondacks, but mesoanalysis of the upstream environment confirms. https://twitter.com/stormchaserq/status/992472856226299908?s=21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far the lake does appear to be playing a role in things as convection has fired up along the usual Lake Erie Shadow/lake breeze and also NW or Erie. Hoping I don't get completely shafted...
