BuffaloWeather Posted December 8, 2020 Author Share Posted December 8, 2020 20 minutes ago, lakeeffectkid383 said: That’s definitley true almost all early season lake effect events land up further north than forecasted. Maybe Hamburg can grab a surprise 2-4” tomorrow morning? Yeah, going to be close. I don't really trust the HRRR. It's hitting at perfect time overnight and rates should be pretty strong. Expect snow to develop after midnight even as far west as western NY due to isentropic upglide sweeping across region. WSW winds in blyr with temps just cool enough for lake enhancement (around -6C) will lead to precip maximums to northeast of Lake Erie and Lake Ontario. Forecast soundings point to mainly snow in these areas, even across Buffalo Metro and at Watertown, except maybe right along the immediate lakeshores. Not out of question that both of these lower elevation areas could see a quick inch, maybe two, of snow that could disrupt the early AM commute on Wednesday. A more middle ground for snow right now though is up to a sloppy inch which is what this forecast will carry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloWeather Posted December 8, 2020 Author Share Posted December 8, 2020 Despite the cold the last few days Buffalo is still + .8 on the season. With how the rest of this week goes, we will likely be +3-5 again. Not sure how second half of December plays out, but feel pretty confident in above average temps for Dec. I think April and May will be the only 2 months of the year with below normal temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJO812 Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Comparing 6z Euro at 90 and 0z Euro at 96, the storm in the Midwest is slightly flatter and the boundary layer is further south. Bares watching. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or it could be wide left twice and then wide right twice and then warm air in between. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfie09 Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 So the GFS doesn't have a follow up wave like the icon, just some light LES on the backside followed by another weak wave with r/s showers and then a Miller B like system on the 17th/18th..
