It's not technically cold enough for pure lake effect in regards to instability and deltaT's but the lake is certainly adding some moisture and heat content to that airmass.

DeltaT13 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 3 minutes ago, Syrmax said: No. He's right and wrong kind of. I usually stand up for the NWS, but they haven't been a bastion of accuracy the last few storms. They nowcasted this one 6 hours before the event, which I admit appears to be working out better than I expected, but not exactly ground breaking forecasting.. It's just weird when people act like what I or others say somehow negates the NWS. People are free to choose any forecast they want. In this forum we just spitball and bitch most of the time. Take it for what it is.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LakeEffectKing Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Man I was hoping you ROC guys were gonna cash in!! I wouldn't be surprised if some of you see as much as I have in Caz.

According to my wife we picked up another 4" Which would bring the snow total to 18" but I'll have an official measurement when I get home At 6. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulyFromPlattsburgh Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Absolutely ripping whiteout. 30 DBZ band. Anyone know what’s causing this surprise band. Usually the Froude values are so high we never cash in on upslope. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeltaT13 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Well things have certainly accelerated far faster than I ever thought they could. Damn near blizzard conditions out my window right now. Color me shocked, impressed, and very happy. Radar looks impressive upstream. I have to climb up on my roof and bust off and ice dam that's causing some issues though. That's going to be a wild time! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I'm a bit of a pessimist in here sometimes. It's hard to stay positive sometimes when you love weather so much and things aren't working out the way you had hoped. I also don't consider myself above any of you guys. I did the math, and studied the books 20 years ago, but most of you guys are just as good or better than me at pattern recognition. The internet and all the available data has allowed even arm chair weather enthusiast to do a very good job of tracking and forecasting weather these days. I love this forum. Glad to have all the differing inputs, even when some of us have our depressive moments. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm probably going to head out and drive around a bit in a few minutes here. I'll be going on an inadvertent chase around 8pm to pick up my wife from work because she's too nervous to drive home. Her car is not great in the snow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
