Holy Smokes!  Just tried the link one last time and they brought it back from the dead!  On the negative side the BTV is also showing the band moving well south of the city overnight and never making it back up...

Well there’s the nail in the coffin. As Porky the Pig says, that’s all folks. On to the next event. Congrats BuffaloWeather. Lmao. Crazy stuff and good find. You just made my day by finding this!

I think you’re overdoing it a bit. Until I see the NWS drop the advisory for Niagara and Orleans and I don’t see a low straight above Lake Superior I still think we’re good. Time will tell I suppose.

Again these models have snow over the Boston hills and south. It’s just mind boggling. 

I mean if they’re all showing the same thing maybe they’re on to something lol. I was half joking about it being the nail in the coffin. But when the BTV WRF shows the bands down that way like the rest of the mesoscale models it gives me a little more confidence that they may not all be out to lunch.

Isn't this model considered one of the best for lake snow

 

I think you might be right. I've never really paid too close attention to LES, but I believe I've heard the Canadian regional referenced as being a decent model for LES. Not sure if that applies to both the RDPS (10km) and HRDPS (2.5km) versions or not.

BUF holding the line still!  Even added a 18-24” zone right over my head... 


 

Southwest flow lake band should have its act together by early this
evening with nearly all mesoscale guidance focusing the strongest
band over far northern Erie country, Grand Island into southern
Niagara county. Snowfall rates could exceed 1" per hour for a few
hours across this area, before steering winds veer slightly to more
west-southwest drifting the heart of an intensifying lake band more
into the central Erie county, including the city of Buffalo and
Buffalo Southtowns, but likely remaining north of the more typical
lake effect snow areas of southern Erie county. Instead, this event should remain
centered on the city of Buffalo and the Southtowns through Saturday.  Snowfall rates of 1"/hr will be
likely with the best chance of seeing 2" per hour rates late tonight
into Saturday morning. The snow band will begin to diminish late
Saturday afternoon, but likely will not completely end until the
boundary layer winds become more disorganized and drier air moves in
later Saturday evening.

I hope that’s @BuffaloWeather House in the little 24-30 circle. 

That’s SBS and my old stomping grounds lol. I’m on the edge of the 8-12 and 12-18 zone. I think they are going to bust hard on this one especially from the north side of the city out to Amherst. I’m fully expecting less than 4” total here and if I’m wrong I’ll be glad to admit it.
