I remember that, I almost went with you that day but think I had to work. 

With all this in mind let me ask you and the others this: would it be safer to rent a place in the Redfield area and just hunker down during a big LES event? Like get there a day before, ride it out, and leave the next day? 

I’ve considered it…I wouldn’t drive out in a rural area like that though in whiteout conditions.

That’s the only way I’d ever do it again. That is the last place you want to be when it’s ripping like that. Now at an air bnb with a couple drinks and the fireplace roaring inside would be the perfect way to ride one out lol.

Still has the Lake Effect idea prior to that as well.  Nov 2 - Nov 5 time frame.  The magic 8 ball knows a big storm of some kind is coming our way!

 It’s crazy to think the last major LES that impacted the city of Buffalo was back in October’06. The drought is real..☹️

pair of mid level storms will phase into one new system over the Lower Great Lakes early in the new work week. This will result in a prolonged period of rainy, unsettled weather, although the rain will temporarily give way to fair weather for part of Monday. While rainfall from tonight through Wednesday morning will total as much as two inches, no hydro problems are anticipated

The dry weather will give
way to an area of rain that will approach from the south. A
strengthening 850H warm front will track north out ahead of an area
of low pressure that will be centered over the western Ohio Valley
this evening. As the front tracks north, the forcing from the
strengthening warm front, combined with a push of moisture from the
south, will cause steady rain to push into the Western Southern Tier
by the late afternoon. Steadier rainfall will be moderate at times
for the Western Southern Tier as it continues to push north.
Temperatures today will be in the low to mid 50s, with some upper
40s in the higher terrain.

Tonight, the warm front will continue to push north ahead of the
area of low pressure that will be centered over the southern end of
Lake Michigan by Monday morning. Steady, moderate rain will track
north, nearing the south shore of Lake Ontario by around Midnight
tonight, with rainfall tracking over the entire area through the
early morning hours. Patchy fog will also be possible tonight with
the steadier rainfall that is expected. Temperatures tonight in the
low 40s from the higher terrain to the upper 40s for the lower
elevations.

Rainfall amounts from this afternoon through tonight will generally
be in the half to one inch range, with some locally higher amounts
possible.

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
The phasing of two storm systems over the Lower Great Lakes during
this period will result in a stretch of unsettled weather that will
include rainfall amounts ranging from an inch and a half across the
Eastern Lake Ontario region to a half inch near the Pennsylvania
border. Fortunately...this will come over a period of two days so
hydro issues are not expected.

Monday will feature a warm front that will north to Lake Ontario.
For our forecast area...this will focus the bulk of rainfall near
and east of Lake Ontario with several hours of mild rainfree weather
for parts of the Southern Tier and Finger Lakes region.

The widespread rain will rotate back across our region Monday night
and Tuesday...as a newly formed sfc low will make its way across
Pennsylvania before dropping anchor near Long Island.

As the low slowly churns further off the coast Tuesday night and
Wednesday...showers will taper off from west to east.

NHCan guidance the odd man out the past couple of model runs being
way too cold on the backside of the aforementioned sfc low. Have
taken a blend of GFS and ECMWF for this event.

I am doubtful of any legitimate cool downs in the extended range. We've seen this show before. Already, the past two weeks have ended up 10 degrees warmer (at least) than they were forecasted to be in "the extended range."

We were "supposed to cool down" this past week and we freakin ended up in the mid 70s (at least in the hell furnace of Sizzlecuse) two days. This upcoming week was supposed to be low 50s, and here we are.... 65 degrees tomorrow and then maybe a couple more 60s days.

I refuse to get excited about any cold unless it's actually here and dense and not going to leave at 10:30pm some random night.

Could be some upper 30s tomorrow..

In the Adirondacks lol 

NWS has gone back and forth several times between low 50s and temps near 60° tomorrow..

Different story south of Lake Ontario to the Finger Lakes
though as sfc warm front is forecast to lift through those areas
allowing any rain to cut out and sfc temps to rise well into the
60s. Closer to where northeast low-level flow persists temps will be
stuck in the mid to upper 50s. Any shift of the sfc boundary will
alter these temperature expectations so will need to keep eye on

I am greatly "amused" how the warmth maxima curves at its highest latitude right over the Syracuse area. It's like reaching out just to tick me off.
