At this point I'd be happy just seeing some wintry Precipitation which is a distinct possibility..

Bringing this down to our local level, the digging trough will
support low pressure to move through Canada on Thursday. As the low
moves east on Thursday, it will drag its cold front across the
region. In the wake of the rain showers ahead of the front, much
colder air will fill in to the region and linger around through
Saturday. Frequent showers will be across the region late Friday
through Sunday as a cyclonic wind regime and wrap around moisture on
the backside of the low as well as a couple of passages of mid level
shortwaves. As hinted at previously, it will be cold enough to cause
some of these showers to fall as snow and quite possibly be lake
enhances as the temperatures in the low levels support this. In the
higher elevations it is quite possible for some snow accumulations
during this showery period. Shower activity will decrease some on
Saturday and Sunday as the deeper moisture is pulled away from the
region.

Woke up to a heavy frost this morning, low of 26°, currently we stand at 43° with a forecasted high of 53°..

This weekend intrigues me. I feel all areas will see some flakes but due to how warm the ground is the only areas that have a chance to see any grassy accums are the highest ridges of SW NY and of course the Tug.

According to this website we should be good by May 1st?

 

Even if that's true life as we know it will not return to normal...cuomo stated as much. He basically stated we learned from China and Korea that if it's too soon then we will just introduce more cases.

2 people in my neighborhood had large parties this weekend with 20-30+ people. With the weather getting nicer, it's going to be next to impossible to prevent this from mass spreading throughout the area. Without a vaccine the only way to beat this thing is with herd immunity.

The moist cyclonic flow grows even colder Thursday night into
Friday. This will allow for a further deepening of the mixed
layer contributing to a stronger wind gust component, perhaps
seeing gusts to near 45 mph at times. Boundary layer
temperatures eventually become cold enough to support a change
over to snow, especially across higher terrain by mid to late
evening. This change over is also quite possible at lower
elevations after midnight. 850 mb temperatures get down to
about -7C, so we will certainly need to watch out some
enhancement east of the lakes.

This more wintry precipitation will continue into Friday morning
before diurnal influences start to bring more rain into the picture
by afternoon, before the precipitation starts a downward trend Friday
night. There will likely be at least some snowfall accumulations
across the higher terrain Thursday night into Friday morning.
Depending on the exact window of best accumulating snow (night
vs day), will determine just how much snow will be able to
accumulate.
