TugHillMatt Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Looks like the band is becoming more cellular, which is spreading the wealth a bit more. Getting some really nice bursts of snow again. How did you make out, Freak? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syrmax Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Take 'em down. This WWA is a joke. Not even a 1/2". Just wow. 6" forecasted. And that's why we call it fake snow... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TugHillMatt Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 It baffles me that we finally get a west flow and the main band is still mostly south of here. My coworker told me when he first moved here, he used to get all frustrated too...but came to accept this is the nature of Lake effect snow. You never know. I need to adopt this mindset and get it out of my system. The stress over something trivial is not good for the body. Hopefully next winter is much better.

wolfie09 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 The flow is WNW which is usually a Fulton special, we wasted 10 hours of a Westerly wind during yesterday lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s snowing heavily here right now. Unfortunately it looks like the band is settling to the south and I’ll be out of it pretty soon. Eyeballing it it looks like 2-3 inches so far.

wolfie09 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 I hate to say but it seems west wind is a transition zone lol According to the rose plots it's the least likely wind direction..We are just the passer by for WSW and WNW lol I think a straight west wind happens 3.5% of the time, almost always a northern/southern component to it .

wolfie09 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 The euro was MEH.. Few inches of snow with quite bit of ice.. It's the wrap around/enhancement that has the best shot for anything decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY_WX Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 It’s looking like the secondary will be too weak too late to keep the cold air locked in at mid levels. The system for late week looks even warmer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfie09 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Lake effect snow is expected to re-develop tonight. This may bring moderate accumulations, especially near the lake in the western portion of the county. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfie09 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Latest high-res guidance suggests the eastern end of this band will come onshore across Oswego and Northern Cayuga counties, producing local accumulating snow. These types of bands often drop their heaviest snow right near the shoreline given the strong land breeze forcing, and can have notoriously high snow-water ratios. That said, in the weak flow environment there is always a good deal of uncertainty as to whether the heavy snow will fall over the lake or just onshore. Given this uncertainty, have not raised any additional headlines yet, but did increase POPS and snow amounts to 3-6 inches in a small area from Fair Haven to Oswego for tonight. If the heavier portion of the band stays offshore, amounts will be lower. On the flip side, if the heaviest portion of the band extends to the shoreline for an extended period of time, warning criteria amounts are within the realm of possibility.
