I will no longer be tracking storms this year because this is going to be the yr where we don't get a Winter, lol! I'm sure if something substantial comes down the pike, I'll be all over it But until then, I'm no longer wasting my time!

Look on the bright side, with no snowcover to speak of, if we do get some cold shots, it's more effective at killing off insects like mosquitoes.  ;)

Not true. I still have some snow piles in my neighborhood. I think I saw BuffaloSummerWeather sledding down one of them in his shorts yelling, "I....NEED....MY....WINTER...FIX!"

The system moving through the area at the moment will continue
to slide east as a mid-level trough quickly ushers it into New
England this evening. Modest cold advection in its wake will
feature northwesterly flow and fairly modest inversion heights.
However, the top of the unstable layer does look to bisect the
dendritic growth layer, and weak shear within the layer should
promote some banding of snowfall off of the Great Lakes. There
continues to be some semblance of concurrence amongst hi-res
models with the development of a Georgian Bay band with a
connection over western Lake Ontario that may emerge into the
Buffalo Northtowns. Light snow accumulations were carried for
this.

As the night unfolds, bands should start to settle a bit south
of there and in more typical lake effect areas with bands also
finally forming off of Lake Ontario. Flow will really favor
western Oswego County and northern Cayuga County, however
unimpressive dendritic growth and crystal fracturing will
probably hold back amounts there, but 2-3 inches seem possible.
Elsewhere, accumulations will be spotty and light.

The next system to affect the area will start to show its hand
late Sunday afternoon and evening over western New York. A
colder pre-arrival profile will be featured across the area.
Potent upper level divergence is evident in the left exit region
of an incoming jet streak, as well. Warm advection off the deck
looks to be centered mostly below the dendritic layer over the
Southern Tier and closer to it across the Thruway corridor. This
will mean a bit better ratios across the northern two-thirds of
the CWA than the southern third. Further, the best lift will
generally translate down the Thruway and points to the north.
Thus, system snowfall will generally be favored in the 2-4"
range north and 1-3" range south.

As the system advances eastward on Sunday night, westerly to
west-southwest flow and a sharp, yet brief-lived, shot of cold
advection off the deck follows. This should develop a nice band
of WSW flow lake effect off of Lake Erie that will at least get
into the Buffalo Southtowns, if not a bit farther north than
that, along with the Chautauqua Ridge. A quick few inches with
this band seem likely, however given the trend on new guidance
as to this development, confidence on amounts and locations is
fairly low.

Never said I wouldn't post, I said I wouldn't track anymore as I'll leave that to Wolfie, lol, so read the posts before you respond! Im trying to figure out what your expecting, exactly, when it comes to our weather? You lived in the Tug for one season and still you were never satisfied, lol, so what exactly will make you smile?  People must have a huge misconception about the Great Lake regions and especially the snow belts because it doesn't always end up that way and I'm sure we all know this.
