TugHillMatt Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 The Ukie looks decent for many except the Lake Plain. You'd think we were Seattle with as much as the water and low elevation are killing us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CNY-LES FREAK Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Well I'll tell ya one thing it's definitely not quiet as it seems there's a storm every other day. Id be happy with it at least being in the normal range temp wise as we've been above normal it seems like three years straight.. it will get cold again though in April and May like it does every effing yearSent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloWeather Posted December 31, 2020 Author Share Posted December 31, 2020 Pretty active pattern setting up on GFS, just wish there was some cold air. We should be able to get some system generated cold on backside on a few of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah with no real source of cold air, temps are very marginal for anything good across lower elevations/lake plains. However, strong low pressure systems can generate there own cold air, but that's not something you ideally want to rely on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TugHillMatt Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 @BuffaloWeather, I've been reading more chatter about those extended maps you've been talking about. "The talk" is how that pattern in the long range looks great for the Mid-Atlantic and possibly New England coast. I know you mentioned it...and I'm a little concerned we're going to go right from this awful pattern we've been in with rain to an awful pattern of everything being suppressed to the south. It wouldn't seem to allow for many opportunities for LES either. Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the airmass sucks. Just no cold air source. I mean how is this a good pattern for us? Especially for those who like snow cover. For me I want cold to get some good LES. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TugHillMatt Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 And...the 12Z NAMs are coming in much warmer with rains up to the St. Lawrence. lol Whew. I love the weather, but these crap patterns are making it difficult for me to enjoy my hobby...especially as a winter enthusiast. Rain rain rain gets old... Anybody else feel the same?

Well then maybe I should hope this crap pattern holds on so I can at least continue to see 1 to 2 inch glop fall and then go for my nightly Jebwalk in the snow before it melts the next day? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96blizz Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Sunday at least looks snowy which would be fun with the NFL games being so meaningful this week. I need your red hot Bills to rest a few guys so my Dolphins can get in! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would give them potentially 2 home games in the playoffs. I doubt they rest anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TugHillMatt Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Maybe the NAMS are doing their usual over-amping and going too far north? The 12Z HRRR looks pretty good for Upstate east of the Finger Lakes. But, it's not exactly the most accurate either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Stefon diggs or josh Allen hurt themselves innocuously (think thumb for Goff or blown out knee for diggs making a simple cut like the hurricanes QB D’riq King made the other night) and all hopes of a SB are gone. The extra home game is A) not what it used to be due to low fan numbers allowed and the Steelers probably will not get past the first round anyways. I can’t listen anymore to any one wanting that 2 seed: the risks FAR outweigh the rewards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a chance. Miami’s starting lineup will slap the second team around. They’re much better than you give them credit for. They’re not better than the starters however they beat some very good teams this year, including the pats the game before, not that they’re good but the pats ran them out of Gillette stadium the first game and this game was much different just like the second game with the bills was with New England...Flores is a damn good coach and for the next decade it’s Bills Dolphins like the 80’s and 90’s for the division each year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve heard snow called “white fertilizer “, lol. When I was an inspector on road construction contractors would hydro seed late in the season, even after it snowed, and they used that expression. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much of your white fertilizer survived? The 6 inches here was demolished in 12 hours!!!! Dewpoints weren't even high. It must have been the gusty south wind, rain, and warmer ground from the 40s the day before. I thought since it had a higher moisture content, it might last longer.
