I mean not to be that guy but it MIGHT help WNY...

Wish this thing would have cut over MI/OH and set us up with a nice SW flow for a day or two. This things looking like a bust. Maybe 1-3” of Synoptic snow in WNY if this thing trends right. Precip shield has really backed off in recent runs with less phasing/further east trend. Yeah we may get in on the Synoptics of the storm but there’s not gonna be much to get in on. 
 

On to the next one.

Agreed 1-3" max for anyone lower than 1k feet.

NE OH looks to be the big winner with the one, then the next one will be for ENY and points N&E from there while we gets scraps from both, lol, typical but I wouldn't expect anything more! Things gotta change eventually but then again, maybe they don't.

I've been reading through the yearly lake effect events page from the BUF NWS to remind myself that our area CAN and does get some good lake effect events...lol

I guess this is where the northern Niagara and Hamilton region will rejoice a bit. Id rather 1-3" instead of a monster cutter that gives me nothing but cool windy days haha. The next weekend storm means nothing for us in the Niagara region so our best chance at snow is with Monday-Tuesday system. 

Assuming there's no big SW LES The Buffalo-Hamilton corridor could end up being missed by two snowstorms within two weeks with people on either side of this 100ish mile zone getting some decent snow

That 12z gfs shows a significant and continued weakening trend of the low pressure. Now only getting down to about 993. It’s barely pulling down enough cold air and is struggling to generate its own cold air. Even snow on the western side seems to struggle to develop. The week after still looking really nice though.

Hwo

A deep storm system will move from West Virginia Monday morning across

Pennsylvania to western New York by Tuesday morning. This will result
in a soaking rain for our region during the day Monday with a general
half to three quarters of an inch expected. The rain may mix with
some wet snow over the Southern Tier late Monday night with the
changeover becoming more widespread on Tuesday. Some accumulating
lake snows will then be likely Tuesday night, mainly south of Buffalo
and Watertown.

 

AFD

The closed low aloft and its associated surface low will become
vertically stacked and slowly weaken while rotating somewhere over
southern Ontario and southeastern Quebec Tuesday through Wednesday.
That said, the region will be in a more showery regime with some dry
periods at times especially for locations outside any influences
from the lakes. Additionally, cold air will filter in across the
region from the west, where enough cold air will be in place to
produce a lake response downwind of the lakes. Temperatures across
the lower terrain may warm up enough to switch precipitation to
rain, whereas temperatures across the higher terrain will remain
cold enough to keep all precipitation in the form of snow. Therefore
for those locations across the higher terrain, accumulating snowfall
is likely, though it is too far out to pinpoint down any exact snow
accumulations this far out.

GFS has a nice little clipper pattern developing. It's been far too long since we've had one of those. It's by far my favorite pattern. They are more common in Ninas with an active northern jet.

For sure, mine as well! Especially when I lived in West Michigan...SW flow ahead of the clipper was our BEST snowfall there. I don't have much experience with clipper patterns in Upstate New York, since there haven't been any since I arrived. I imagine Central NY does well on the backside of the clippers.

That’s gonna be a stretch....  doesn’t look right...

Temps will cool overnight into Tuesday as wrap around moisture increases and enhancement kicks in...I’m guessing with nighttime accumulation 2-4” looks right at lower elevations and 5-8” in the hills. LES looks to be later in the period with a series of clippers that would actually bring colder air.
