If the front were timed just a bit better I think a more widespread wind event would have been at hand. Here downstate frontal arrival will still be timed far after sunset and without better mixing. Guessing better gust potential here should be with the line itself. Still like the idea of gusts 25-35 here downstate.

I am hoping for a coating of snow Tuesday which is clearly in the realm

Report from a lake freighter of winds in excess of 80mph with the cold front.  That initial blast is going to be crazy!

 

* Special Marine Warning for...
  Nearshore and Open waters from Geneva-on-the-lake OH to Ripley
  NY...

* Until 230 PM EST.

* At 104 PM EST, severe thunderstorms were located along a line
  extending from 25 nm north of Fairport Harbor to 62 nm south of
  Western Vermilion, moving east at 50 knots.

  HAZARD...Wind gusts in excess of 70 knots.

Given trends in recent NAM/RAP forecast soundings being too cool compared to observed temperatures in northeast OH, it is reasonable to assume a cool bias for western NY. KBUF VAD is showing 65 kt at 1 km AGL and 100 kt at 6 km AGL. The intense wind fields coupled with the broken band of storms moving rapidly northeast along the I-90 corridor suggest at least an isolated risk for severe gusts and wind damage across western NY. If a brief period (30-60 minutes) of cloud breaks can develop ahead of the convective line prior to moving into northwest PA, a potentially more widespread threat for severe gusts could develop across western NY.

Really quiet in here. Odd

I mean to be honest we shouldn’t have had much wind at all (so far) given the setup.  It’s unusual to get strong winds in the warm sector.
 

30-60mins after the frontal passage will be out sweet spot.   The frontal passage itself is losing steam as downstream rains and clouds used up any good energy.
