Feb 10 to Feb 15 goin to be wild I think I dont think winters done but I think winters back is broken. I expect a few more storms, a few more cold spells but nothing like the last couple weeks. The GTA has about 4-5 weeks left of good winter storm chances. After that it starts to become elevation dependent and sloppy. 60s and 70s in the lower midwest early next week, with a few 80s are even possible in the deep south. I think even some of us in the great lakes get close to 60F with almost everyone in the 50s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phillifan22 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Looks like we’re done here. I’m pulling for you to get smoked [mention=925]TugHillMatt[/mention] & [mention=694]wolfie09[/mention]. Here are the last of the selected pics. Last video coming soon.In the hour or so I was in Watertown this afternoon I saw 1 person walking, and it might have been you based on these pics! They got pummeled up there. I’ll post a few pics and vids from today soon. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AppsRunner Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Band still drifting/pivoting south, and still quite intense. Lake Ontario never disappoints in terms of actual snowfall rates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TugHillMatt Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Finally starting to get bigger flakes with the steady snowfall. Sheesh, talk about being patient. The band looks like it may be setting up on a WNW flow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie09 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 SWS Issued earlier.. ..A BAND OF INTENSE LAKE EFFECT SNOW WILL AFFECT SOUTH CENTRAL JEFFERSON...CENTRAL LEWIS AND NORTHEASTERN OSWEGO COUNTIES... At 1143 PM EST, A band of heavy lake effect snow producing snow fall rates of 2 to 4 inches per hour extended from near Ellibsurg and Mannsvile eastward across the Tug Hill to just south of Lowville. This band was drifting very slowly to the south at about 5 mph. Winds in excess of 30 mph are occuring in and near this band of lake effect snow. This will result in blowing and drifting snow with greatly reduced visibility. Locations impacted include... Sandy Island Beach State Park, Lowville, Pulaski, Adams, Redfield, Selkirk Shores State Park, Highmarket, Barnes Corners, Whetstone Gulf State Park, Southwick Beach State Park, Richland, Watson, Martinsburg, Lyonsdale, Greig, Orwell, Lorraine, Sandy Creek, Port Leyden and Lacona. Starting to really come down now.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TugHillMatt Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 1 to 2 inch per hour snowfall rate here. Looks like band is fizzling out quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TugHillMatt Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Lol. Band finally made it south and lined up with me perfectly overnight, but shortened just.enough to put me on the......edge.....of band.....and a cliff. Whatever. My first experience with a real LO snow band. Good prep for me to keep my expectations low until I actually see it falling. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phillifan22 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 So here are my pics/vids from yesterday with some info about each. View of the L.Ontario band over the Tug from the southern shoreline, taken Thursday morning - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9tUIvgJOCJ0 Picture taken Saturday morning in the town of Sandy Creek on the southern edge of the band Video of the conditions on I-81 N near Adams, NY Saturday afternoon, on the southern edge of the band. Was very difficult to see and get off the exit ramp due to the combo of light falling snow and blowing snow: Video of conditions getting back on I-81 N near Adams, NY. You can see an accident already had occurred (likely due to the extremely low VIS), and another car going way too fast almost ran into us too: Videos, a picture, and radar/location screenshot from near TGI Friday's in Watertown. We measured 3.6" in one hour at this location (3:20-4:20PM). Visibility ranging from 0-500 ft. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yekZIwQVywU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1BLLX4C168 And finally, video of ground blizzard conditions near Copenhagen, NY due to light falling snow, and SIGNIFICANT blowing snow Saturday evening. Had to come to a complete stop (like in the video) several times heading south on Rt. 12. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rochesterdave Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 I saw Oswego city got into the death gasps of the band. I bet they ended up with 4-6” inches. About 100% more than I forecas for them. Glad Wolfie got into the sh.t. FreAk and Matt are having a tough go. Hey, Roc has had a huge .3” over the last week- so there’s that to be comforted by. Snow Ridge has missed last two storms. Matt, I bet you got near a foot? Not what the NWS thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that I have to cancel hotel reservations at specific times in order to get refunds will make the next few days of weather watching a bit stressful. At this point I think I'm just shit canning the Vermont half of the trip. Cut my losses and save vacation and money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The LES has SUCKED for the Southern Tug. Got 16 inches during the course of the week, so not a total shut out....but it was literally 4 periods of 4 inch snowfalls. 2 feet on the ground...I bet areas north have 4 to 5. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point I think I'm just shit canning the Vermont half of the trip. Cut my losses and save vacation and money. I hear ya. Last week, one of the guys going on the trip with us killed himself, which put everything into perspective. I wasn’t great friends with him but some of the others were. As far as I know, we are still going. Suffice to say, I’ll be worrying less about a little rain and focusing on just having a good time with the people around me. My trip to Snow Ridge followed some horrible weather (rain followed by extreme cold) and the conditions were surprisingly good. These new parabolic (I’m sooo old) skis do really well on hard pack. Spring skiing can also be great as long as it isn’t actively pouring on you. Have fun Delta! Hope it is great! Upload some pics. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
