By far the most epic 3 week April stretch I can remember regardless especially given it all occured mid-late April. Obviously 97 holds the cake but climatologically April 1st and 26th are worlds apart. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ericjcrash Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 6 hours slower and this would've been epic. I'll take this .5" and solid covering to close out the season (presumably). Congrats to those 30 miles north who got rocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rochesterdave Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 The NAM 3k killed it with this storm. The days of hoping and praying are over. If the models say no snow- u may as well pack it in. The only area they truly struggle with (inside of 48 hours) is the south shore lake effect. Not sure if that’s resolvable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syrmax Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 I'm kind of "glad" this storm wasn't earlier and colder IMBY...we recorded about 0.5" of rain in my area, which would have been 5-6" of snow. Undoubtedly, we would have has WS Warnings issued for the same storm back during Winter....and come up a bit light... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Bumble Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Sneaking in a nice day here in WNY between the gyre swirling to the east and the next system racing towards us from the west. Sun and low 50’s feels like mid-summer after yesterday’s rawness. Looks like a good chance to get into some rare southerly flow on Wednesday that would send our temps above normal for the first time in about 16 days. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloWeather Posted April 27, 2020 Author Share Posted April 27, 2020 We just had 4 months of a west coast trough and east coast ridge. Now we are going to see 4 months of the opposite.

cny rider Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 If you have to go to work and be trapped inside all day....today's the day to do it I guess. It was 33 F with a little drizzle and melting snow when I left for work. It was 36F and raining when I got out of work.

DeltaT13 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 The high peaks of Vermont really are an amazing place. Mt Mansfield is still holding nearly 70 inches of snow heading into the first week of May. I would love to own a home high in those hills someday. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Syrmax Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 I'm kind of rooting for some measurable May snow on the heels of a lousy winter, and with everything else going on...it fits. One of these GFS panels is bound to be right eventually. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
