Thinksnow18 Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Up to 14.5” and still ripping I’m guessing the airport has to be over 17” if I’m that high, their update was 2 hours ago.., over 20” since Christmas Eve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lakeeffectkid383 Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Up to 11 inches here and still snowing moderately but should be ending soon. Over 16 inches here since Xmas eve and about a foot OTG. Not bad. I’ll give it 3 stars for my location given we’ve gotten almost a foot of snow in 6 hours however I can’t go higher than that for my exact location given that some areas just a couple miles south and east are gonna double that. For those areas probably a 4 star event. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloWeather Posted December 26, 2020 Author Share Posted December 26, 2020 Heavy snow has moved back in. The band should weaken throughout the night but not completely fiddle out until the early morning hours between 4-6 am. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s funny because you can almost see the band progression, you’re about 3” less than here and My location is about 3” less than KBUF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo Bumble Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Finished up with 12-14” here. Today was an all-timer for us northtowners...day after Christmas...snow started around 830am and ended around 4pm, so full viewing pleasure...so many different kinds of snowfall (wind whipped medium flakes, big flakes piling up furiously, monster flakes parachuting down)...skies cleared quickly at sunset with a deep blue sky topping off the day. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeltaT13 Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Well I’m back home after 168 miles and 8 hours of chasing. That was an all timer for me too. My soul feels rejuvenated! Definitely got into some insane rates at times, had to be over 3-4”/hr stuff. . Pushed out 6 cars and jumped one. What a day what a day. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloWeather Posted December 26, 2020 Author Share Posted December 26, 2020 2nd half of this event was much less than what I expected here. Dry air really killed it after this afternoons burst. 8:30-Midnight- 6.7" Midnight-6am- 11.2" 6am-Noon- 3.8" Noon-6pm- 1.8" Storm total: 23.5" At 38.9" on the year, has to be pretty close to normal if not slightly above. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And sadly with the weather pattern ahead ours will also vanish by Friday except for snow piles... next 10 days look mild mist days which I can’t understand looking at the indicies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as I said before, a daylight chase is so much more enjoyable. I’ve chased at night enough, it’s disorienting and stressful under those intense rates. I actually got some decent video too! I’d have to put it on YouTube though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
