Meanwhile, a closed upper level low is progged to track across the
southeast. This will cause the post tropical storm zeta to track
northeast from the Gulf Coast into the Mid-Atlantic Wednesday night
and Thursday before exiting the Mid-Atlantic coast sometime Friday.
That being said, rain shower chances will increase late Wednesday
night into Thursday as ascent increases and moisture is advected
into the region. The better rainfall amounts Thursday appear to fall
across the southern portions of the state.

As the aforementioned surface low continues to track east, a cooler
and drier air mass will make its way southeastward across Ontario
late Thursday night into Friday. With the cooler air filtering into
the region, rain showers will transition into a mix of snow and rain
(for the lower elevations) or all snow (across the higher terrain)
late Thursday night into Friday morning. Snow accumulations (of 1-2
inches) will be confined along the higher terrain in the Southern
Tier and areas east of Lake Ontario. After dawn on Friday,
radiational heating will transition showers back to all rain. With
the low exiting the Atlantic coast Friday and the drier air
filtering in from the north Friday, shower activity will mainly lie
along the southern portions of the state and shift eastward
throughout the day.

Always fascinated with LES.

 

What is the least you've ever gotten in a winter?

Do you benefit from Noreasters too as you lack elevation.

 

I live on Long Island and Liberty NY and am looking to relocate

 

Love a place that gets it from LES,  Noreasters and elevation based events

 

Where in NY State is the snow capital year after year?

 

Thanks

I still think its too warm for any appreciable snows but that can change and probably will! The stronger the system is the better the chances are for heavier snow as a stronger SLP will bring down the cold air over Ontario province. It's plenty cold enough for snow at night to accumulate but during the day would be tough. Off to a real early start its looking like !

If you put it in this context late October sun angle is about the same as early March sun angle and while the ground is definitely colder in March than late October. The sun may not have as big of a deterrent as one might think,  especially with rates

I've been in Oswego county for about 5 years, least amount is around 100" in 2015-2016, in Fulton NY..

Coastal storms are hit or miss, probably better in the syracuse-rochester corridor, as well as the higher elevations of the catskills and eastern adirondacks..

Snow capital is easily the tug hill, somewhere between redfield, worth and barns corners imo..

Freezing rain and snow is accumulating in Texas-OK-MO right now. If it can do it down there in late October mid day it can definitely do it up here. Though I admit id rather it snow at night in October/November and March/April

Snow capital is 4-5000 feet in the Adirondacks. I've never seen so much snow and I went in a down year. Mansfield has to be up there too. 

NWS Burlington on Twitter: "Long Live Winter? On Mt. Mansfield, VT there  was 90 inches at the snow stake. Deepest snow of season.  http://t.co/5JwMIIaip0"

I was going by snowfall..The "snowiest area east of the mississippi" as they claim about the tug.. Keeping snow on the ground is a different story lol

Yeah that makes sense and obviously the places I posted are not livable. I do wonder what the total snowfall accumulations are up in those areas? Has to be at least 200-300" per year. There is no real way to keep track in the Dacks, I think Mansfield does though?

I’m surprised there isn’t a weather station up there
