Something like this is over 400k around here. This is the housing development behind my house and the prices. I can't believe the prices are so high in my backyard. Hopefully it helps my housing value. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/3644-Delilah-Ln-Hamburg-NY-14075/2094805663_zpid/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNash Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Pretty impressive burst of snow here. Radar returns show BUF is getting the same stuff, so this will likely go down as more than a trace. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s no way the airport doesn’t record accumulating snow today. I have snow accumulating in my driveway and on my road at 1pm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo Bumble Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Reports of whiteout with thunder and lightning along Niagara River in Tonawanda (from my wife who for some reason thought it would be a good idea to take a walk along the river this afternoon). She called me half crying/half laughing because it was so crazy and intense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Bumble Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 I’ve gone from being annoyed by this weather to absolutely fascinated. Is it possible in the modern climate regime (eg last +\- 400 years) to experience anything more anomalous than this? 2pm on May 9th and I just had a blinding snow squall whip through with near 0 visibility, temp of 30 degrees, and a fresh new inch on the ground. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree its incredibly fascinating but certainly not anywhere near as historic as you implied. Just 30 years ago Rochester had 10 inches of snow on the ground on May 8th. 7 years ago the Adirondacks got 36 inches of snow on Memorial day weekend. May is a transition month, everything is on the table. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lakeeffectkid383 Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Awesome Ob for BUF for May 9th at 2 pm! translates to 32 degrees, moderate snow, 1/4 mile visibility, winds gusting to 29 mph.

I would be curious though to see how this stacks up against the other May snow/cold events in terms of duration and timing. Accumulating snow 2 straight days during peak heating seems tough to beat.

I’m with you though, I think this is the latest accumulating snow I’ve seen in my lifetime. So definitely a significant event with a somewhat long return interval.

Syrmax Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 We had ~2" of overnight snow near Albany, Clifton Park, on May 18 2001. Could have been May 2002. So once every 2 decades or so for upstate lowlands based on very limited sample size. If this continues after dark we could easily see a few inches. Although melting between 6 hour measurements, esp in daylight will really knock totals down. I suspect we may see some inflated numbers with people over measuring. Actually, not sure what the cirrext protocol is when its melting between squalls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TugHillMatt Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 What a great wintry afternoon! About 1.5 inches here after two large squalls that came through. The first one brought an inch in 45 minutes. I wish I could post my video! What a STRANGE year this has been. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
