Looks like I have to wait until tomorrow to get into the band. Most likely chasing up north tonight.

Lake effect snow will remained focus on the Buffalo metro area
Wednesday morning before shifting slowly southward through midday
Wednesday. After this, the band will remain somewhere between the
Buffalo Southtowns and the Boston Hills Wednesday afternoon through
Thursday.

Sorry to side track from the real weather going on.  I just graphed the elevation change from the Erie Shore, through Batavia to downtown Rochester (unfortunately its in meters). Anyway, you can see that long downslope from Batava to Rochester.  Thats what really does us in.  I mean its already a losing battle the further inland you are, but to have a downslope puts the nail in the coffin.

Can you do the same for that starting point to Walworth?

That looks beautiful. Been skating since I was 2. We have a pond around here where we play ice hockey at. Nothing beats outdoor hockey. 

Thanks! We use a little Zamboni attachment that you put on a weedwacker to polish it too. I love it...It is pretty peaceful working on it.

There will be a tight gradient
in snow amounts and overall conditions, with areas south and
east of the airport seeing little weather - even some sunshine,
while areas to the NW get pummeled with periods of blinding
snow. Snow rates may be on the order of 1-2"/hr, particularly
while the airmass aloft is still relatively warm and crossing
the dendritic growth region. Put in some initial snow amounts of
3-6" for today, but these might be on the low side if the band
remains in a steady state. The band *should* move a little to
the north in the afternoon.

This evening, the arctic front plows through and the band may
break up or move around a bit like an uncontrolled end of a fire
hose, before settling down over the Buffalo Metro area, the
airport, and ENE into NW Genesee, southern Olean and even into
Monroe County where an advisory was for overnight into
Wednesday.

Just went home for lunch and measured 6.6" of absolute fluff!!!bif parachutes...no wind and accumulates easily...when the wind kicks in later and the snow becomes finer I'm almost guaranteeing we'll see a blizzard warning....neighbor across the street says he is in contact with emergency services and thruway is going to close later this evening.

Already a 6" and 4" out of downtown and Williamsville, respectively. Temporary disorganization for now before things start to get intense later this evening.

Not even a flower here in Syracuse as I just came back from Rochester Phelps where it was snowing not early in fact got back to Syracuse not even a flurry . If this keeps up Syracuse is going to end the year perhaps with record low snowfall! In fact unless we have a blockbuster February and at least some snow in March I think below-normal snowfall is a lock this year
